You Can Go Now!
Producer
The life and provocative work and writings of First Nations artist, Richard Bell.

Producer
Extending a lifetime’s worth of zero-waste activism, visionary designer Bakker devises the Future Food System, a self-sufficient residence that provides shelter, food and energy while reusing any by-products as fuel or fertiliser.

Volcano Man
Executive Producer
Richard Crawley’s passion for cinema was so ardent that he recorded his young family’s every moment and milestone on video.

But then tragedy struck and snuffed out Richard’s creative and parental fire. Now, his adult son James attempts to understand Richard’s inner turmoil after discovering 30 hours of confessional footage, in the process making sense of the 70-year-old’s newfound zest for life.
