Martha’s New Coat

Martha’s New Coat tells the story of 15year-old Martha, and her younger sister Elsie as they journey from their fringe country town to find their father. Realising that life isn’t always greener on the other side, they return to where their heart is.

Starring unknowns Matilda Brown in the lead role of Martha and Alycia Debnam-Carey as her younger sister, the cast of this 52 minute drama includes Dan Wyllie (MURIEL’S WEDDING, ROMPER STOMPER), Lisa Hensley (15 AMORE, PARADISE  ROAD), Helen O’Leary and Tim McCunn. Rachel Ward follows on her considerable success of “The Big House” (Best Short film, AFI Awards and the Film Critic’s Circle, 2001, Sundance 2000) with this new drama based on the original screenplay by Elizabeth J. Mars. Liz Watts (WALKING ON WATER) of Porchlight Films is the producer with Bryan Brown taking the Executive Producer credit for New Town Films.
