Looking for Grace

[vc_section][vc_row gap=”default” content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]

Synopsis

Grace is on a bus in the middle of nowhere with her best friend Sappho.  She has something in her backpack she thinks is exciting.  Sappho is not so sure about it.  Jamie, cute as they come, gets on the bus.  Things have just got more exciting.  Sappho loses heart for their big adventure and leaves Grace and Jamie to their flirtations.

Bruce carts grain backwards and forwards across the country in his big yellow truck.  He has been landed the job of looking after his son Phillip for a few days.  Having Phillip in the truck may or may not be either legal or smart, it is not clear.  Back home his wife is freaking out about a spider that needs to be dealt with.

Norris should have retired but he likes to be useful and detective work is in his blood.

Denise, Grace’s mum, finds a note on the kitchen bench that says “sorry mum”.  She can’t make sense of it and she can’t find her husband, Dan, either. His secretary says he has gone out to get a bun.  But how long does it take to get a bun?

Dan, Grace’s dad is on his own roller coaster ride of a day and that’s before he finds out his daughter is missing and that she seems to have stolen a lot of cash out of his safe. A lot of cash – even Dan isn’t too sure how much it was.

As all of them hurtle down the highways and back roads to find Grace, life unravels faster than they can put it back together again. Denise finds out more than she really wanted to find out. Dan has to make some tough decisions. Norris finds he can help someone in a small, unexpected way.  And Grace finds out that being grown up is a lot harder than she ever imagined.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”14059″ img_size=”medium”][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_section section_color=”section_white” section_padding=”padding_small”][vc_row gap=”default” equal_height=”yes” disable_element=”yes”][vc_column width=”1/12″][vc_single_image image=”12832″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”11/12″][vc_column_text]

“There is a road in the wheat belt of Western Australia that has a long avenue of salmon gums hugging the edges.”

“If you drive through this avenue as the sun is setting, you feel like everything in the world is ok. This image was a touchstone for me while making Looking for Grace.”

“What really made this film possible was the local support we received.

“The Mount Magnet community were so welcoming, helpful and accomodating of our weird, wonderful and sometimes last minute requests.

“Perhaps more importantly, we felt the community were aligned with our desire to show off the region and share a part of our history for Australian and international audiences to enjoy.”
