In Bob We Trust
Producer
Having faithfully served his South Melbourne parish for nearly four decades, the cantankerous, controversial Catholic provocateur affectionately called Father Bob is well known and loved, as much for his incorrigible media savvy and battles with Church hierarchy as for his staunch advocacy on behalf of the disadvantaged and disenfranchised. In Bob We Trust goes behind the scenes with Bob, documenting his everyday trials during one of the most turbulent times in his career: his forced retirement and eviction from the church he called home for 38 years.
Ben Lee: Catch My Disease
Producer
Charming, intelligent and iconoclastic, Ben Lee is an Australian singer-songwriter whose creative growth since his early adolescence has undergone almost relentless media scrutiny. This is a playful yet deeply intimate portrait of Lee, exploring his meteoric rise to pop stardom and the issues of celebrity and spirituality that arise when launched into the spotlight.
Hail

Autoluminescent: Rowland S. Howard
Producer
From myth to legend Rowland Howard appeared on the early Melbourne punk scene like a phantom out of Kafkaesque Prague or Bram Stoker’s Dracula. A beautifully gaunt and gothic aristocrat, the unique distinctive fury of his guitar style shot him directly into the imagination of a generation. He was impeccable, the austerity of his artistry embodied in his finely wrought form, his obscure tastes and his intelligently wry wit. He radiated a searing personal integrity that never seemed to tarnish. Despite the trials and tribulations of his career, in an age of makeover and reinvention, Rowland Howard never ‘sold out’. With recent and moving interviews, archival interviews and other fascinating and original footage, AUTOLUMINESCENT traces the life of Rowland S Howard. Capturing moments with the man himself and intimate missives from those who knew him behind closed doors; words and images etch light into what has always been the mysterious dark.

Additional Dialogue

Comenzando en el ambiente tropical de Brisbane, con una sobreabundancia de chicos, y una chica, Sam, Danny decide salvarse escribiendo una novela existencial. La llegada de Anya y un dilema del tipo 'Miami antivicio' relacionado con el alquiler, arroja su vida y, finalmente, la casa en la que vive, a la calle. 'House 48' está en Melbourne. Danny se encuentra ante una pesadilla kafkiana, donde toma el pulso a la ciudad con un par de detectives filosóficos y una colección 'hardcore' de sus seguidores, que en el estado de Victoria, la policía tiene una tendencia a disparar para matar. Escapa a Sydney, a 'House 49', y Danny se encuentra con un estilo de vida hetero-fascista.
