ABC Commercial has inked a pre-sale of Wayne Blair and Nel Minchin’s documentary Firestarter: The Story of Bangarra to Swedish public broadcaster Svt, for the SVT2 and Svt Play platforms.
Produced by Ivan O’Mahoney for In Films, Firestarter takes audiences through the history of Sydney’s Bangarra Dance Theatre, telling the story of how three young Aboriginal brothers — Stephen, David and Russell Page — turned the newly born dance group into a First Nations cultural powerhouse. But as the story reveals, the company’s international success came at a huge personal cost.

The interest surrounding the program prior to its distribution launch at Avant Première has been phenomenal. Audiences from film festival screenings have embraced and celebrated this stunning addition to ABC Commercial’s Arts slate”.

Firestarter, directed by Wayne Blair and Nel Minchin, marks Bangarra Dance Theatre’s 30th anniversary. Taking us through Bangarra’s birth and spectacular growth, the In Films documentary recognises Bangarra’s founders and tells the story of how three young Aboriginal brothers — Stephen, David and Russell Page — turned the newly born dance group into a First Nations cultural powerhouse. Through the eyes of the brothers and company alumni, the Aacta nominated Firestarter explores the loss and reclaiming of culture, the burden of intergenerational trauma, and – crucially – the power of art as a messenger for social change and healing.
