Determined to provide opportunities for untapped multicultural talent, Terri has embraced the project’s unique Mediterranean look and feel. SaysTerri, ‘The script is compelling, with some well drawn characters. Casting this picture’s going to be tough, we’re looking for people with a lot of courage, and a lot of commitment. Francisco’s vision is not simple; there’s a lot of emotional psychology going on. This picture could ultimately make some new careers’.
Auditions will take place over the next several months from the offices of the M.S.P.A. and 35Central.
‘Terri’s an incredible asset’, says Producer Kyri Seguin, ‘She’s managed to harness a collection of young, multi-cultural talent over the last 12 years through her school and her agency.

Described as an urban fairytale nightmare, the project has sparked a lot of enthusiasm. Comments Terri, ‘I was introduced to Francisco six weeks ago. I knew nothing of him or the project prior. Since then I’ve had people enquiring about the man and his project. Then I find out they’re already talking about it in the U.S. and the U.K.’
‘It’s because of its independence’, comments Producer Dallas McKenzie, ‘Melbourne’s independent filmmaking community is making headlines around the world at the moment. Locals who hear of things to come don’t want to miss the boat, at any cost’.
