DIALECT COACHING: TELEVISION

2/3/2020

"STATELESS": Co-produced/created by Cate Blanchett

Yvonne as Sofie Werner

Thrilled that "Stateless" started airing last night on ABC TV.

It's the 6 part TV drama series that I worked on in 2019 as Dialect Coach. Directed by Emma Freeman and Jocelyn Moorhouse, the series is co-produced/created by Cate Blanchett with producers Matchbox Pictures, Dirty Films and ABC TV at the helm.

The formidable cast includes Yvonne Strahovski, Cate Blanchett, Dominic West, Asher Keddie, Fayssal Bazzi, Jai Courtney, Marta Dusseldorp and Darren Gilshenan.

Inspired by true events, it tells the stories of a woman escaping a cult, a refugee fleeing with his family, a father trapped in a dead-end job, and a bureaucrat on the verge of a national scandal who all find their lives intertwined in an immigration detention centre.

The series will air for 6 consecutive Sundays on ABC TV in Australia from 1st March 2020, and will be on Netflix later in the year for international viewing. A powerful and important story for our times about the toll on everyone connected to immigration detention centres.
