In early 2010 the Alloy Orchestra was commissioned an original score, based on a musical setting drawn on a 3-foot long sheet of squared notebook paper. Its operating principle was a fixed tempo - 60 beats per minute - to be strictly followed by the musicians throughout the piece. Within this grid, the performers were given complete freedom to determine the timbre, the volume and the sequence of themes to be chosen for their work. Two artists - a drummer and a draughtsman - listened to the recording of the music without any knowledge of the instructions provided for its creation. Unbeknownst to each other, both were given the task of playing along with their respective instruments: one with a drum in front of a camera, the other with pen, brushes, ink and colored pigments on 35mm film strips. The footage was assembled and edited in strict adherence to the criteria adopted for the music. The Alloy Orchestra was then asked to accompany the film with their own score

Blackfella Charlie is getting older, and he's out of sorts. The intervention is making life more difficult on his remote community, what with the proper policing of whitefella laws that don't generally make much sense, and Charlie's kin and ken seeming more interested in going along with things than doing anything about it. So Charlie takes off, to live the old way, but in doing so sets off a chain of events in his life that has him return to his community chastened, and somewhat the wiser.

Buscando una casa en venta en un barrio tranquilo y arbolado, Max, profesor de ciencias, y Teresita, asesora de fiscal, deciden que ésta es la casa para ellos. Sin sospechar nada, la compran y se mudan, encuentran una buena familia por un lado y un vecino "interesante" en la otra. Pero de pronto se vuelve más y más insoportable e intolerable, incluso violento; la policía es incapaz de hacer nada y el abogado de la comunidad sugiere tapones para los oídos. Max y Teresita se ven obligados a resolver el problema del vecino ellos mismos... y terminan con un cadáver en sus manos. Pero no termina todo allí, porque el maldito cadáver tiene amigos, y lo que es peor, enemigos. (FILMAFFINITY)

A documentary about making the feature film "Ten Canoes". It is May, 2005 in Central Arnhem Land: 'We are making a movie. The story is their story, those that live on this land, in their language, and set a long time before the coming of the Balanda, as we white people are known. For the people of the Arafura Swamp, this film is an opportunity, maybe a last chance to hold on to the old ways. For all of us, the challenges are unexpected, the task beyond anything imagined. For me, it is the most difficult film I have made, in the most foreign land I've been to...and it is Australia.' - Rolf de Heer
