What makes this one special

From the Judges

From the Judges

Cinematography draws the eye throughout, with lovely shots gathered from locations across Australia and a score that carries the mood alongside them. The panel responded warmly to the concept and to the visual effects work, and there is a real assurance in how the film is directed and how it sounds.
