Mallee Health youth workshop 1 - 2005 April - Pinnaroo SA
CHALLENGE: The Hero Project continued its program in the Mallee with the second workshop in Pinnaroo. 3 local young people were involved in the production, with the support of the local youth and health workers.
OUTCOMES: Kade Richardson and Danah Ribbons discussed the impressions city folk have about them living in the country, and created a story about a local quirky character. Pinnaroo is over 300 km from the beach – but they do have their own surf beach and aren’t really worried about sharks…
SCREENINGS & AWARDS: Pinnaroo Surfer formed part of the award winning Directing the Hero Within DVD resource. The film screened at Come Out 2007 Youth Film Fest at the Mercury Cinema in Adelaide.
