Sue Brooks – Director – Looking for Grace.
We talked with Sue Brooks about what makes a film interesting and compelling, what does the definition ” female movie” eventually mean, and how a woman can survive in the film industry. Besides talking about her film, of course…
Plot: Grace, 16, runs away from home. Her parents, Dan and Denise, head off on the road to across the Western Australian wheat belt with a retired detective, Norris, to try and get her back. But life unravels faster than they can put it back together. Grace, Dan and Denise learn that life is confusing and arbitrary, but wonderful. Looking For Grace is about how we make sense of the mess of our lives and what it all means. It is a wry drama about lies, secrets, small and large griefs and love.
