SYDNEY -- The federal government's Film Finance Corp. is following a worldwide trend by financing a feature-length documentary, Night, aimed for a theatrical release. Two additional fictional features, two children's television series and eight documentaries also were approved for funding at the FFC's October board meeting Friday. The FFC describes Night as "a visually lush feature-length documentary, which will explore the universal nature of night and how we experience it." Writer-director Lawrence Johnston created the award-winning documentary Eternity and feature film Life. Johnston is producing with Lizzette Atkins, with sales and distribution going through SBS Independent. Night has been selected by the FFC through its evaluation process. Films chosen through evaluation receive a letter of intent containing the terms and conditions of proposed FFC funding. The FFC board makes a formal commitment to fund evaluation projects only when the producers have satisfied the terms and conditions set out in the letter.
