Q&A guest: Ann Turner (film director)
Special thanks to filmmaker Colin Hodson for being our videographer.
Swinburne/VCA graduate Ann Turner's debut feature film Celia
(1989) has been having a surge in its reputation in recent years
with re-releases and a digital restoration. It is a film about
childhood showing the conservatism of Australian politics at
the height of the Red Scare in the 1950s. This brooding
coming-of-age family drama has recently become championed
by horror film fanatics worldwide because of the recurring Hobyah story told throughout it. (Digby Houghton)
