Personal Quote:

I don't think the larger Australian Community realizes how hard a film like 'Gabriel' was to make or what it has actually done and/or said about our local industry. In time though, the truth will surface through more filmmakers grabbing the bull by the horns and starting where Gabriel left off. See more »

Trivia:

Whilst making Gabriel, would often run out of money and had to work daytime in a call center then go and sit in with the editor at nights. See more »
