Hunt Angels is a 2006 Australian docudrama, directed by Alec Morgan, starring Victoria Hill and Ben Mendelsohn. Hunt Angels was filmed in Sydney, Australia and opened in Australia on 30 November 2006 after premiering at the Melbourne International Film Festival in August.
Plot
The film is based on the true story of Rupert Kathner and his professional and personal partner Alma Brooks, two "not very successful but very passionate filmmakers," who struggled to make feature films and newsreels in Australia, between the mid 1930s and early 1950s.[1] The film uses dramatizations featuring Ben Mendelson as Kathner and Victoria Hill as Brooks, with some dialogue taken from Kathner's own book. The film is also illustrated with clips from some of their films and creative visual effects based on contemporary photos. The film also includes real interviews with people who knew Kathner and Brooks, including Bud Tingwell and Paul F. Kathner.
