Raw Nerve 2010
Open Channel is proud to present the 2010 Raw Nerve films.
Raw Nerve is an initiative funded by Screen Australia aimed at emerging filmmakers, enabling them to make a short film on digital video. Every year, Raw Nerve gives four new filmmakers, who have never previously produced or directed a film with full or part financing from a government film financing agency, the chance to move from no-budget filmmaking to a more professional approach with the help of a small budget, and equipment, technical support, advice and guidance from Screen Australia and Open Channel.
The 2010 Raw Nerve films are Hard Rubbish (Writer/Director Steve Mitchell, Producer Angela Lee), Home (Writer Cameron Moloney, Director Thomas Baricevic, Producer Michael de Robbio), Space Boy (Writer/Director Eugene E-NRG, Producer Idora Alhabshi) and We Are Illuminated (Writer/Director William Head, Producer Lester Francois)
Very special thanks to Script Assessor Chris Ryan and Line Producer Angela Lee.

SPACE BOY A boy's imagination can lead to great flights of fancy. With a little self-belief, and a collection of old bits and pieces, he can even fly to the moon. But one small step from his parents can lead to a giant leap into manhood. Writer/Director: Eugene E-NRG |

WE ARE ILLUMINATED We Are Illuminated is a slice of our shared 24-hour story - the invisible relationships that bind us all and the fantastic ocean of light employed to illuminate our way. Writer/Director: William Head |
