Lingo Pictures is working with journalist Rick Morton on a mini-series about the Robodebt scandal that preyed on the nation's most vulnerable citizens.
'Erotic Stories', 'First Inventors', 'In Our Blood', 'Limbo', 'Marungka Tjalatjunu (Dipped in Black)' and 'Strait to the Plate' will compete for the SDIN Award.
One of the key decisions Lingo Pictures made through the development of SBS anthology series 'Erotic Stories' was that sex had to be central to the story. How sex would then be depicted on screen became paramount, as did creating a safe workplace for cast and crew to create such content.
The ABC and Matchbox Pictures drama 'House of Gods'; short-form rom-com series 'Videoland', from Melbourne production company Pikelet Pictures; the Lingo Pictures-produced NZ series 'After the Party', and the Queensland-shot 'Apples Never Fall' have been selected for this year’s Series Mania in France.
'Carmen', 'Foe', 'Limbo', 'Shayda', 'Streets of Colour' and 'The Royal Hotel' will contend for Feature Film Production of the Year at next year's Screen Producers Australia Awards, to be held on the final night of Screen Forever on the Gold Coast.
Madeleine Gottlieb talks directing SBS anthology 'Erotic Stories': "Each story is so unique to each writer, and in most cases, to their lived experience; it felt a little bit strange to impose a cohesive look or feel on the show. Instead, we came to the conclusion that the cohesive element is the eroticism."
Stan Original 'Prosper', produced by Lingo Pictures, is set in the inner sanctum of the evangelical megachurch, U Star, run by the wealthy and powerful Quinn family. When their charismatic founder and pastor announces an impulsive US expansion, the collision between faith and ambition threatens to tear his family and church apart.
SBS and Lingo Pictures upcoming series 'Erotic Stories' was named Production of the Year at the inaugural Screen Well Awards, held to coincide with World Mental Health Day.
