We’ve got plenty of laughs on this episode of BEHIND THE LENS thanks to special guests ERIC SILVERA & SEAN KENEALY, but we’ve also got a fascinating exclusive interview that takes us into the history and heart of Australia with STEPHEN MAXWELL JOHNSON.<\/p>\n
HIGH GROUND is already one of my “Must See Films” of the year, and talking in-depth about the film, the history behind it, and the cultural history of the Aboriginal people and its importance in the world, is director STEPHEN MAXWELL JOHNSON in this pre-recorded exclusive conversation.<\/p>\n
A powerful human drama based on just one of the many Frontier events that occurred between the British and the native Aboriginal people in Australia in the early 20th Century, HIGH GROUND stars Simon Baker in this exploration of people vs power, culture and identity, and gives a new perspective to that long accepted. Baker, together with Jacob Junior Nayinggul, steal the heart and touch the soul.\u00a0 Listen as Stephen talks about shooting on sacred lands in the heart of Australia, the history of the Aboriginal and indigenous peoples, the spectacular breathtaking cinematography, the exquisite sound design utilizing recorded ambient sounds of nature as its heartbeat, and minimal cultural scoring. This is an interview – and a film – you don’t want to miss.<\/p>\n
