The blockbusters are stacking up for Easter, to make exhibitors very happy. Almost under the radar will be two niche documentaries that deserve to be noticed as well.
When the Camera Stopped Rolling is the personal documentary by Jane Castle about her mother, Lilias Fraser, a pioneer for both her gender and her ability to bring delicacy and poetry into the shouty olden days of official Australian true life filmmaking. We first discussed it before the AACTAs in 2021 (and look out for more on this film on ScreenHub soon!)
