Demonstrator (film)
Demonstrator is a 1971 film directed by Warwick Freeman.
David Brice, a newsreader with CTC7 in Canberra, optioned a book by Don and Elizabeth Coleman. He met some ACT solicitors to raise funding and approached experienced TV producers Warwick Freeman and Jim Fishburn. They formed Act One The Fund and commissioned FFI Freeman Fishburn International to make the movie.The film began shooting in September 1970 on location in Canberra. The only imported actor was Kenneth Tsang from Hong Kong. Students from the Australian National University appeared as extras and Prime Minister John Gorton told government departments to assist wherever possible, provided no direct expenditure was made. Freeman says that during filming he realised there was not enough money to complete the film so he had to go around in the evenings raising further funds from locals ........
