Short Film Coming in 2024!
“CORREA serves as a poignant reminder of the interconnectedness of all life forms and the impact of human interventions on the delicate balance of the environment. This animated gem is not just a feast for the eyes but a contemplative piece that urges its audience to reflect on the symbiotic relationship between mankind and nature.
“The film is a grand exploration of the hidden life within the natural world, a narrative woven delicately through the lens of animation. Lachlan Plain, serving as both director and writer, crafts an enchanting tale that begins with the birth of beings within the confines of flowers and gum nuts, unfolding into a family’s interesting journey across the landscape and towards the water.
“It invites audiences to contemplate the arbitrary divisions we impose on nature—roads, fences, and borders—while drawing parallel reflections on the divisions we construct within society.”
Ulrich Bergman

Exhibition 2022
The CORREA film was created as part of an exhibition at Town Hall Broadmeadows Gallery – an installation of sculpture, light and stop motion projection developed in conjunction with the 2022 Hume Winter Lights Festival.
CORREA tells the story of the beings that animate the bush and the things that divide them. Artist, Lachlan Plain, reflects on the arbitrary divisions we carve into the land – roads, fences, borders – as well as those we construct between ourselves.
