Call For a Poetic City
Director: Elisabeth Felson
Year: 2020
The Nye family, who arrived in London from Australia in the '60s, were passionate about horses. They established a stable in Hyde Park, and have been doing a remarkable work at the community level for decades. They contributed to democratizing riding in the city, passing their dream from generation to generation. The camera captures the day-to-day routines and challenges of life at Ross Nye Stables with humour and poetry. Premiere at the Melbourne Documentary Film Festival 2021
Spacewoman
Director: Hannah Berryman
Year: 2024
A landmark feature documentary about astronaut Eileen Collins, the first woman to pilot and command the Space Shuttle. Eileen’s incredible journey starts with her smalltown beginnings, sees her smash through many glass ceilings, and culminates in four dramatic space shuttle missions, the last being possibly the most dangerous and most important of them all. At its heart the film is the moving human drama of one family, where a mother’s extraordinary career takes us straight to the big philosophical question of what is the level of acceptable risk in human endeavour? This film celebrates Commander Collins’ trailblazing NASA career which opened the way for women to become spacecraft pilots and commanders, and proved a perfect riposte to a previous generation of male astronauts who thought there was no place for women to lead the way in space.

You Can Call Me Lou

Through rare archival footage and Super8mm film, the documentary transports us back to those electric nights, offering an intimate look at how those years shaped Louise's identity and how her love for dance fuelled her journey towards self-acceptance and authenticity.
