Mary Gage notes on her website that
I wrote my screenplays in the hills behind Perth, which is one of the most remote cities in the world. The film industry was 3,000 miles away in Sydney and Melbourne so, although the state and national film councils funded my work, no production company ever succeeded in raising enough money to get my screenplays produced.
