Comments While this article provides valuable information concerning the role of SBS Independent in helping new filmmakers to realize their dreams through funding and support, the blantent PR at work - including a quote from Richard Frankland in which he said he could not have made No Way To Forget "without SBS assistance.." - detracts from the article.


Synopsis This article discusses the impact SBS Independent has had on the Australian film industry and the success of projects it has funded since its inception in 1994.

Includes government funding details and the allocation of these funds to different projects.

Provides a list of the films which have been funded by SBSI including Richard Frankland's No Way To Forget as part of the From Sand To Celluloid collection.

Discusses the reception of No Way To Forget at the Cannes film festival and Frankland's motivation for writing and directing the 10 minute short.

Includes comments from the acting general manager of SBSI, Franco di Chiera, on the importance of funding projects that would not otherwise secure funding through other channels.
