Unfinished Sky
Cinema Paradiso has just confirmed the release of the new Australia drama UNFINISHED SKY on Thursday 19 June, during Refugee Week 2008.
Starring William McInnes and Monica Hendrickx, Unfinished Sky is the story of a reclusive farmer who finds a strange woman on his farm under suspicious circumstances and who turns out to be an Afghani refugee who he shelters from the Police.
The film has screened to major acclaim internationally and was part of the official selection at both Toronto and Rotterdam International Film Festivals.
When Tahmeena (Monic Hendrickx) stumbles onto John’s (William McInnes) isolated farm, he has no choice but to take her in. She’s been badly injured and speaks no English. While John’s not inclined to welcome visitors, not since the suspicious death of his wife, he’s even less inclined to involve the police. So he goes about his business as he waits for her to heal when he plans to send her on her way.
An initially reluctant voyage of mutual discovery begins as these two strangers gradually learn to communicate and connect.
