'Rediscovering the country' is proving a journey for the filmmakers

Film maker Stephen Oakes (on left) and producer/director Ian Penna (right) say that the film title is taking on a personal aspect for them. In tracking down groups and landholders involved in landscape restoration, they too have gone on a journey 'rediscovering the country.' The film is exploring how we newcomers can – like the first Australians – become custodians,  living lightly off the land while caring for country. 

"The further our journey takes us, the less certain we become that there is only one road  to take," says Ian.

Fund raising is now complete with almost $30,000 banked from philanthropic donors and crowd sourcing.

The 30 minute fim is due for completion in May, with a launch planned in June at the Melbourne Museum, which is to be hosted by major donor, the Norman Wettenhall Foundation.

    Gib Wettenhall is interested in how  we carry out large scale landscape restoration that involves the people who live in those landscapes. That, he  believes, would build truly resilient landscapes.
