The reality of Australia is the people, we interact with each other and interact with our surroundings and everything else in between. The typical Australian family represents all those things. I want the viewer to experience what one weekend is like with an Australian family, No words, just a few moments to reflect what it is to be Australian.

Music is original score by myself.

    Just beautiful. Peaceful, reflective and full of tangible love. The beach scenes (which were beautiful) and cricket were iconic, but it made me realise that it wouldn't have mattered where this family were, or what they were doing; they were still Australian. Thank you Peter.

    Love how there are no words in this video - the images speak for themselves.

    I love the way this movie was made with vintage look. It's great. Family is what Australia is about.
