Bunya Productions, the Sydney-based production company behind Sweet Country, has been working with Dubbo Filmmakers’ Kellie Jennar and Dubbo Film Society’ to bring the film to the city.
“The fact this event is happening is a testament to the passion and dedication of Dubbo’s creative sector,” Ms Jennar said.
