The Un-Australian "The Surprise Toast" of Cannes 2008
Director Jon Lucas would like to thank all the wonderful people who have worked on the Un-Australian. It is because of you the film has had such a great reaction here in Cannes.

Let me thank particularly, the editor and post production supervisor at Active Motion, Roberta Horslie ASE for her complete and passionate support for this project. Many was the time she sacrificed her own time to make sure things ran smoothly.

Active Motion Post Production House has been incredibly supporting over the last four years of this project. Emma and Chris Reynolds, Ryan Brett and James Boorman have been fantastic.

Director or Photography, Ellery Ryan (ASC) has been an inspiring mentor and creative influence in my film making for many years. I can't thank him enough for what he has taught me and for his patience in helping me create my films.

Why the hell not!

I ain't sold it yet and I intend to be there in 2008 so lets get the money shot that will do just that.

Another 12 hours of footage at Cannes Film Festival, following the experiences of unknown and ambitious film makers from around the world. What has happened to their careers since their first meetings with Jon in 2004?

We are looking for a distributor or pre sales in Europe and the States. Release date is expected to be 2008 with a premier at Cannes in May next year.
