Films by Mairéid Sullivan and Ben Kettlewell

1/ The award winning film "Time after Time" celebrating the great heritage of ancient Celtic, American and Australian peoples.

Works in Progress:

2/ "Liquid Light - the Power of Water" an artistic treatment on the transformative power of water in all its forms, as reflected in cultural beliefs, scientific discoveries, and technological innovations: past, present and future.

...an audio visual awakening of the senses to the wonder, the magic, the power, and most important ~ the value of water to our existence.

It is predicted that by 2025, nearly three billion people worldwide will face an acute scarcity of clean, fresh water, and billions more will experience shortages and soaring costs for water. Many parts of the world, including North and South America, India, Africa, China and Australia, will not be able to escape the pressures of an increasing population and a finite supply of water. And, researchers in oceanography, marine biology, fisheries science, glaciology, and meteorology are revealing that our oceans and waterways are changing in every way we can measure. Our growing demand for water threatens the world's development and security. See film outline here

Through the creative production methods employed by Maireid Sullivan and Ben Kettlewell, this project will utilize the interplay of light and music to capture the beauty and power of water in sustaining life. 'Liquid Light - The Power of Water' will examine water in all its' forms; from liquid to ice, vapour to liquid and back again, the interaction of water with gravity and the inescapable relationship between it and the survival of humankind. The overwhelming power of water when utilised, such as extracting energy from waves and converting it into electricity, while desalinating - will all form part of this fascinating and unique review of the water resource."
Phillip Honeywood, M.P.
State Member of Parliament for Warrandyte, Victoria, Australia

“This film has importance both tangible and intangible. It has an advocacy component that could be of value to the public at-large and to organizations that address water purity and availability. It addresses the current and future availability of clean water for the poor. Most people only drink bottled/purified water. However, this isn't an option for many. It touches on topics often missed by other projects about water, that have focused on the "ethereal" qualities of water but never addressed the "utilitarian" part ... the part that answers a more pragmatic (or cynical) "So what?" It offers "think globally, act locally" opportunities.”
Ron Thompson, Philanthropist
