Jason Momoa co-writes, produces and co-stars in this dramatic western adventure based on the epic, tragic true story of outlaw Willie Boy and the last great manhunt of the old west.

In 1909, Willie Boy and his forbidden love Carlota go on the run after he accidentally shoots her father in a confrontation gone terribly wrong.

An adaption of Australian author Melanie Tait’s play The Appleton Ladies’ Potato Race has begun filming in Sydney and the Southern Highlands of NSW.

The Appleton Ladies’ Potato Race follows the story of Penny Anderson, a GP who returns from the big smoke to set up shop in her (fictional) hometown of Appleton.

Actor-writer-director Jenna Sutch has arrived with the dark comedy series Death Doula. 

Crafted during her time at the Australian Film Television Radio School (AFTRS), Death Doula is a comedic exploration of death and grief that uses an intriguing blend of live-action and animation.

Unlike their birthing counterparts, death doulas provide physical and emotional support to those that are exiting this world. Sutch’s first exposure to the practice was through a 2018 ABC article, and after using them to deal with a personal loss, she knew that there was a story to be told.
