20.01.2022 We at the Alex Theatre are supporting LORNE FILM in raising equity investment for its exciting new feature film project, MAGPIE. The story grapples with the complex yet universal issues surrounding people unable to engage with their fellow humankind during a global lockdown. MAGPIE delivers a powerful message around our need for connection and that in the end it is loving and being loved that will save us. A supernatural cyber/thriller/romance where Wuthering Heights me...ets The Ring MAGPIE is a tale of grief, love, and hope that asks if the only way forward is to stop looking back and if the very thing we fear is what will ultimately save us. Please join us and support the creation of this exciting project by donating at https://australianculturalfund.org.au/p/magpie-feature-film
