In May 1973, some 10 000 artists, activists, hippies, radicals, gurus and visionaries descended on the struggling Northern Rivers town of Nimbin for the Aquarius Festival. They camped for 10 days and explored a new way of living. Many festival goers found kinship among the drugs, drama and bliss, as well as a blueprint for a sustainable life. Their story is lovingly told with the aid of newly uncovered footage and interviews with festival co-founders and attendees. Aquarius is an absorbing exploration of the power of the individual to affect change and how radical wisdom can resonate through generations

Aquarius is directed by Wendy Champagne and produced by Sam Griffin for Tilt Media. Damien Lane composed the 70s-inspired score and Norman Parkhill handled music supervision. Listen to a selection of Damien’s music

Aquarius has screened at the 2024 Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide Film Festivals

Every Little Thing was inspired by Terry Masear’s 2015 memoir Fastest Things on Wings: Rescuing Hummingbirds in Hollywood. It traces her growing understanding of the nature of existence as she tends to dozens of wounded hummingbirds in LA. This soaring film captures the painful journey from injury to first flight shared by hummingbirds and volunteer rehabbers. In her review for the Hollywood Reporter, Sheri Linden wrote that ‘ …Every Little Thing is not just a deeply affecting portrait—it offers compassion as a way of life.’

Every Little Thing is directed by Sally Aitken and produced by Bettina Dalton for Wildbear Entertainment. Caitlin Yeo provides the Hollywood score. Listen to the soundtrack

Every Little Thing premiered at Sundance earlier this year and has since screened at the 2024 Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide Film Festivals
