A key member of iconic bands The Dirty Three and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, multi-instrumentalist and renowned film composer Warren Ellis has cut a brilliant and unorthodox figure in music for over three decades. Far from the international concert halls in which he has plied his craft lies a very different passion project: a wildlife sanctuary in the forests of Sumatra. Co-founded by Ellis and spearheaded by the indomitable Femke den Haas, whose dedicated team of conservationists rescue trafficked and mistreated animals and then devote years to nursing them back to health.

This fly-on-the-wall documentary offers both a deeply personal insight into one artist’s life through the act of creating and an inspiring reminder of how much can be achieved when passionate people come together to do great things to impact the world around them.

Ellis Park is the first documentary from acclaimed Australian filmmaker Justin Kurzel (The Order, Macbeth, Snowtown).
