Desolation Angels

As the sun pounds down on the dusty old blacktop, a travelling salesmen pulls into a pub that literally is in the middle of nowhere. Inside he is told the story of a love lost and love found. He is told the story of Neal and Mary. Neal travels the broken highways and back roads of Australia in search of a life that he can never have back, along his isolated journey he finds Mary hitchhiking, unwillingly he gives her a lift. She shows him that nothing is ever what it seems, that yesterday doesn’t matter, only today.

Set against a rugged backdrop, Desolation Angels is a story about disillusionment, loss, regret and the search for purpose in life. Shot on location in Toolleen, Little River and Geelong over eighteen days, the story is a road movie showing the crossroads of four characters lost within their own aimless lives and how they influence one another into believing that there is always something else.

Desolation Angels - The Editing Process


Nicholas at the 89 edit facilities	Ok. If I remain absolutely still he will disappear with those ridiculous edit suggestions

Nicholas calling his agent - "Get me off this picture"	Another Day, Another Cut

Editor Nicholas Erasmus

The photos below are a typical classic confrontation during the editing process between a younger me, and Nicholas.

Day 1 … The editing process :

However, the next day ...

“You call that a cut, You hack!!!”
“Please … you can’t even direct traffic”

Reshoot Photographs

We returned to Little River to reshoot some scenes that would fit better into the movie. With kind permission from Mr Ian Green, he allowed us to shoot at this amazing little place full of charm and character!
