What does it mean to showcase the “real Melbourne” in 2021?
It’s a question writer/director Andrew Walsh hopes to answer through his debut feature How Deep is the Ocean.
Olivia Fildes plays Eleanor, a mysterious young woman that arrives in the city with the clothes on her back, little money, and a past she’d rather forget.
Over the next year, she struggles to adapt and find her feet, spending most of her time working a series of dead-end jobs and pursuing a futile affair with her married neighbor Charlie (Adam Rowland), while remaining totally oblivious to the men and women who do care for her.
The cast also includes Will Weatheritt (Utopia) and Cris Cochrane (The Legend of Ben Hall).
Written by Walsh, How Deep Is the Ocean is being produced by Daniela Ercoli (Choir Girl) and Dia Taylor (Little Miseries) through Taymaynari Productions.
