His first works pioneered pocket filmmaking as he experimented with mobile phones and pocket cameras to create stories that stood comfortably alongside big-budget short films on the international stage. Attracting numerous awards for his films, Jason has become a frequent visitor to the stages of Tropfest (Sydney, NY and Las Vegas), Aspen Shortsfest, Edinburgh International Film Festival, Palm Springs International Film Festival and San Francisco International Short Film Festival, to name but a few.

  • Mabo-Press-Kit.Pdf
    MABO INTRODUCTION In 1973 Eddie ‘Koiki’ Mabo was shocked to discover that the ownership of the land his ancestors had passed down on Murray Island in the Torres Strait Islands for over 16 generations, was not legally recognised as theirs. Rather than accept this injustice, he began an epic fight for Australian law to recognise traditional land rights. Eddie never lived to see his land returned to him, but the name MABO Mabo is known in every household throughout the country. A STORY OF LOVE, PASSION & JUSTICE In January 1992, at only 55, Eddie died of cancer. Five months later the High Court overturned the notion of terra nullius. Underscoring this epic battle is Eddie’s relationship with his wife Bonita. MABO is as much a love story as a document of one man’s fight to retain what he believed was legally his. 103min telemovie Sunday 10 June 8.30pm MABO traces Eddie’s life - from a carefree young man of 17, through his courtship and marriage to his one true love, up to his death and the handing down of the High Court decision on that historic day - 3rd June 1992. PRODUCTION CREDITS abc.net.au/mabo Writer: Sue Smith. Director: Rachel Perkins. Producers: Darren Dale & Miranda Dear. Director of Photography: Andrew Commis ACS. Executive Producers: Carole Sklan, David Ogilvy, Sally Riley. Cultural Consultants: Gail Mabo & Charles Passi. catch up on iview For further information contact: Kris Way, ABC TV Publicity 02 8333 3844 / 0419969282 / [email protected] SYNOPSIS This television drama tells the story of one of Australia’s national heroes: Eddie ‘Koiki’ Mabo, the Torres Strait Islander who left school at 15, yet spearheaded the High Court challenge that once and for all overthrew the fiction of terra nullius.
