Toomelah: Interview - Director Ivan Sen

Ivan Sen, director of 'Toomelah', has said: "The script was written directly from experiences and memories I have from visiting Toomelah ... The audience constantly travels through the eyes of Daniel as he navigates his way in search of his place in the community ... I needed these totally inexperienced actors to feel very comfortable. So my idea was to pretty much make the film with no crew. It was a big gamble ... Their beautiful spirit transcends every scene." -
