The controversial, Australian-produced, award-winning feature film ‘Anno 2020’ will premiere on YouTube, Odysee, Daily Motion and Rumble, among other streaming platforms, on September 13.

This global release milestone was announced today by the film’s lead producer Gil Ben-Moshe, of MoneyShot Productions. It follows last year’s sold-out red-carpet cinema screenings in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.

Speaking from his Sydney office, Ben-Moshe said following the success of the interstate screenings in New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland, his production team was excited to share their unique work with international streaming audiences.

“While ‘Anno 2020’ was very well received by cinemagoers, we believe it is tailormade for viewing on streaming platforms given its multimedia style and sometimes contentious handling of the lockdowns and other pandemic-related challenges experienced in 2020,” he said.

“The travel restrictions prevented us from always physically being on set – except for the Australian scenes. Even then, we had to film clandestinely at times.”

Directed by New Zealand-Australian writer-director James Morcan who adapted the ‘Anno 2020’ screenplay from his published novel of the same name, the film is an epic mystery-drama shot in 17 cities, on four continents and features dialogue in four different languages.

Writer-director James Morcan describes ‘Anno 2020’ as an alternative movie.

Billed as a global kaleidoscope of interconnected characters seeking redemption, answers and justice amidst the chaos of 2020, its cast members are an ensemble of renowned actors from around the world.

They include leading Australians Erin Connor (Occupation: Rainfall), Greg Poppleton (The Chronicles of Narnia), Brett Partridge (Water Rats) and Audrey Nitschke (Wolf Like Me), American veterans Kevin Scott Allen (American Primeval), Sheila Ball (Assault On VA-33) and La Rivers (Equal Standard), as well as Chinese-American Crystal J. Huang (Dark Feathers), as well as rising US actor-singer Jessica Castello (Oildale).

Morcan agreed ‘Anno 2020’ has been crafted specifically for the streaming experience.

“It is an alternative movie with controversial themes that mainstream outlets would likely censor,” he said.

“It was apt that one of the awards it won was ‘Best Experimental Film’ at the Titan International Film Festival here in Australia. That award is reflective of the revolutionary filmmaking and storytelling techniques we used.”

Adventure story about the last Tasmanian tiger now an audiobook!

The short story ‘THE LAST TASMANIAN TIGER’ by Lance Morcan is available now as an audiobook via Amazon’s Audible initiative. (Listening time 33 mins). To listen to a sample, click on “Virtual voice sample” at: https://www.amazon.com/Audible-The-Last-Tasmanian-Tiger/dp/B0FDL1F54N/

This work of pure fiction, set in Tasmania, Australia, was inspired by the true-life figure of Dingo Truganini, the Aboriginal tracker who helped capture the last known Thylacine cynocephalus – an animal better known as the Tasmanian tiger courtesy of its stripes and the fact that it was a carnivorous marsupial. That was in 1933. They named him Benjamin, and he resided at the Hobart Zoo until his death in 1936.

Benjamin the Tasmanian tiger can be viewed in this remarkable video at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o79vefZC-aQ

Most Australians, incidentally, believe the Tasmanian tiger is extinct. Most but not all. Sightings have been, and still are, frequently reported, but none have been definitively confirmed as genuine.

In real life, the aforementioned Dingo was descended from a woman simply known as Truganini who is considered the last full-blooded Aboriginal Tasmanian and whose name he inherited. That’s where the history ends and the fiction begins.

In ‘THE LAST TASMANIAN TIGER’ my protagonist is one Charlie Truganini, also (fictitiously) descended from his namesake and the great-grandson of Dingo. Charlie has devoted his life to searching for the Tassie tiger, as he refers to it, or the thylacine, as scientific types insist on calling it, to determine one way or the other whether it still exists. He has always suspected it does exist despite having never sighted it nor even stumbled across its spoor in all his travels.

When Charlie sees a Tasmanian tiger with his own eyes, he realises he doesn’t want his tiger meeting the same fate as the last one. And so he makes a decision. A decision that will have life-and-death consequences.

*

For those who prefer the printed word, ‘THE LAST TASMANIAN TIGER’ is one of five tales in my book ‘5 SHORT STORY GEMS’ which is available as a paperback via Harvard Book Store, Barnes & Noble, Waterstones UK & Europe bookstores, Amazon and via public libraries.

‘INTERNATIONAL BANKSTER$’ identifies who is responsible for the gigantic financial gulf that separates the top 1% of the population from the common people, or the 99%.

Un this, Book 5 in ‘The Underground Knowledge Series’, the financial overlords illuminated include the powerbrokers at Wall Street banks, European central banks, the US Federal Reserve and the Vatican Bank, as well as elite banking dynasties such as the Rothschild and Rockefeller families.

As the authors state in the book’s opening pages, “Starving the masses of financial opportunities, sinking them in debt and cheating them out of various services their taxes should pay for, are among the greatest sins those in power can commit.”
