A documentary offering insights into the juvenile justice system and another showcasing Australia’s own ‘horse whisperer’ have been selected to receive funding under a joint initiative between Screen Australia and The Guardian.
Charby Ibrahim’s Juvie and Pete Ward’s Movement at the Station will stream for free on the news site later in the year as part of the doco program, designed to help Australian filmmakers reach an international audience.
Focusing on young people with first-hand experience of the juvenile justice system, Juvie brings together animation, stylised interviews, and observational material to delve into the life circumstances of a young person leading up to their arrest, the social context surrounding their behaviour, and their prospects on the outside after release.
Ibrahim, whose short documentary Bright Lights launched on The Guardian last month, teams up with producer Britt Arthur (Paper Trails) and executive producer Jen Peedom (Mountain) to bring the project to life.
