For Yolanda Ramke and Ben Howling, the May 17 launch in Australian cinemas of their debut feature Cargo followed by worldwide release on Netflix will be the culmination of a five-year journey.
No one could accuse Causeway Films’ Kristina Ceyton and Sam Jennings of resting on their laurels. The producers’ thriller 'Cargo' is about to debut at the Adelaide Film Festival ahead of its launch as a Netflix Original, they’re in post on Jennifer Kent’s 'The Nightingale', and have just gotten the greenlight on 'Buoyancy', the debut feature from writer-director Rodd Rathjen. The two speak to IF about establishing their company and working together.
Yolanda Ramke and Ben Howling’s debut feature Cargo – dubbed a ‘zombie tearjerker’ – will make its world premiere at the Adelaide Film Festival in October.
Netflix has acquired the worldwide rights to Yolanda Ramke and Ben Howling's post-apocalyptic debut feature, 'Cargo', recently shot in South Australia.
The first production still has been released from Cargo, starring Sherlock’s Martin Freeman.
Australians in Film (AiF), the LA-based Australian entertainment industry guild, has announced that the feature film script for Cargo is the winner of the inaugural Gateway LA Script Development Program Prize for 2015.
