and the writing begins...

This week I have been working on 2 synopsis's for the What Love Sounded Like project. I have settled on 2 different recordings. 'Letter To Col' (working title) is made by an unknown women in 1967 to her husband who is away at long stretches at a time in the Australian army and the other 'Please Hold The Line' recorded by Howard Smith a communication technician and family man who hand made record disc's to record onto in the 50's. I am in touch with Howards family and they have given me permission to use the recording. Sytste helped with dramatising the audio which I hope will give the films more emotional depth.


Letter To Col (working title):
A mother struggles with loneliness while her husband is away in the army. She has got something to ask him and needs courage to say what it is.



Please hold the Line:
A humorous film with themes of loneliness based on an actual international telephone call recorded in 1951.
