Mr Fraser, also a poet, actor, musician, teacher, writer, director and producer, said Strangers to the World was an essay on conscience and its role in the lives of three extraordinary people. “These people have fascinating stories and, as Rachel says, they’ve just got to be told,” Mr Fraser said. “She could charge a fortune but she’s working at base rate. “We’re part way through the project at this stage, we’ve filmed at the Docklands studios in Melbourne and the film’s been backed by the Australian Cultural Fund. We have a trailer on Etty Hillesum up already.” The movie has multiple AFI award-winner Ellery Ryan as cinematographer and music by Richard Pleasance of Boom Crash Op-
era and Seachange renown. Geelong’s stocks as a movie-making industry destination might be growing but so too are its credentials for industry personnel. Mr Fraser is an industry evergreen who, between lawyering and teaching, has appeared in such productions as Homicide, Division 4 and The Big Men Fly. In 2005 he wrote, produced and directed documentary Syllable to Sound, featuring Helen Morse and Alison Bell. Last year he produced short film Rembrandt Van Rijn. Mr Fraser has also published a collection of poetry, Some Conclusion in the Heart, and occasionally performs as a singerguitarist after studying under Geelong jazz aficionado Paul Rettke.
