Australian indie feature The Hidden Well is gearing up to shoot in Melbourne.
The film will be composed of five chapters, focussing on different characters: a couple trying for a child; another couple looking for connection; a confused young man facing a "cruel proposition"; and a woman searching for her estranged father.
The feature will shoot in and around St. Kilda in August, and has been optioned for worldwide distribution by Media Luna Films in Germany.
Theatre director Robert Chuter, who recently directed feature The Dream Children, is helming the project as well as executive producing alongside Christopher Pender.
The film is written by Alex Broun, Angus Brown, Krista Dalby, Jane Miller and Amanda Miha, and produced by Ryan O'Gorman for Fat Kid Films.
It stars Michael Maxwell Loder, Renee Anderson and Jonathan Weir.
