A fundraiser to support the continuing shoot for MAGPIE, a feature film written by Darren Markey and directed by Kate Whitbread – to be shot at Railway Farm, Trentham. Billed as ‘Wuthering Heights’ meets ‘The Ring’, MAGPIE is a supernatural/thriller romance following the story of a man mourning the death of his wife, who turns to online dating for comfort with terrifying consequences that will either destroy him – or set him free. If you've ever wanted to support independent Australian film this is your chance! You can score yourself some incredible items, from an amazing collection of original artworks from some of Australia’s most esteemed artists, a signed copy of the screenplay, becoming part of the production, CDs and band t-shirts, tarot readings, and fresh flowers, to having a special event hosted by a professional emcee. Shooting has already begun in Melbourne and Central Victoria with more planned late 2023. All proceeds from the auction will go towards the production of MAGPIE. ‘We are thrilled with the local support we have received in preliminary shooting for MAGPIE at Railway Farm and look forward to having folk join us for this exciting online event. We are extremely grateful for the incredible items that have been kindly donated. This is a unique opportunity for people to support Australian film and to bid on some fabulous treasures.’ Writer/Producer, DARREN MARKEY
