y separately published work icon Cuckoo 2015 13566533 2015 single work drama

'Mel and Leo are like a lot of couples. They live in the present, accommodate the past and anticipate a future consisting of half  made plans they’ll probably never realise. One night a young man arrives on their doorstep  with tales of amnesia, stolen bikes, Russians and an almost insatiable appetite for toast. Could he be the son they lost 12 years earlier or simply a clever stranger seeking to inveigle his way into their home?'

True Love Travels on a Gravel Road 2011 single work drama humour

'Set in rural Australia, True Love Travels on a Gravel Road is a new Australian comedy-drama about ordinary people going to extraordinary lengths in pursuit of a dream.

'All of his life Jake has been patronised and pegged as the town “tard” but when he falls in love with Maggie anything seems possible.  Making Maggie’s dream of going to Graceland becomes his quest, and a chance to escape the small country town that has labeled him a loser. All that stands in Jake’s way are the town’s locals, including Maggie’s husband, her straight-talking mother, local hard man and philospher Richard, plus Jake’s boss and his wife.'

'... on choice and broken dreams, set in a photocopy centre in a regional town ... a bungled heist story ... that is finally very moving and human.'
