05 Sep 1977 0h 52m
53 minutes - a difficult length, but near masterpiece . long build-up, but surreal ending. Winner of 77 Sydney film Festival Best Short Drama and Rouben Mamoulian Award. very difficult to find. Was screened on TV in late 70's. Would fin copy in AFI library, possibly. Henri Safran (Director) went on to direct "Storm Boy" and several other films in Australia. Now retired and living in the USA. Bob Hill (Writer, Producer, Designer) is better known as a Production Designer - mostly of international TV commercials. He recently returned to designing films in 2005 with the yet to be released "Guests". Earlier films included "The Coolangatta Gold" (1984) "Listent to the Lion" was sold internationally to the UK and some European territories. Original soundtrack by Michael Carlos is wonderful.
