The Kingdom: How Fungi Made Our World
- 2018
- Documentary
- 52mins
- Status: Completed
Hidden from sight is a Kingdom that rules life on land. It’s an alien world with the largest and oldest organisms alive today. It was fungi that brought life back to Earth after the last mass extinction event and their untapped powers could help our species to survive on our increasingly poisoned, depleted and hotter planet. By looking at fungi in the context of evolution and natural history, scientists are making discoveries that will change our lives. Some fungi will save us, others will threaten us and we are just beginning to understand which is which.
Life On Us
- 2014
- Documentary
- 2 x 52mins
- Status: Completed
There is an unexplored planet in our solar system. A strange world of bizarre creatures locked in a fight for survival. This unknown world is the human body. Inside and out, it's teeming with a trillion cells that are not us - but are very much the making of us. Each one of us is a walking ecosystem, crowded with creatures that exploit every niche of our body. 90 per cent of the cells in our body are not of human origin, yet they will determine out health, our life expectancy and even our behaviour. Microbes have changed the course of human history and altered our evolution. Microscopic life forms can poison, paralyse, starve and suffocate us. They can eat our flesh, and bleed us to death. But there are others that keep us alive. The war on our bodies never ceases, yet we never notice it. We are born 100% human, but will die 90% microbial. Between these bookends of our lives is an unexplored world - LIFE ON US

Indigenous politician Linda Burney and conservative commentator Andrew Bolt are deeply divided on recognising the unique nature of Aboriginal Australians in the Constitution.

How important constitutional recognition is for Indigenous Australia and the nation is a subject all Australians will need to grapple with if it goes to a referendum.

Ten Bucks a Litre
- 2013

Some of our most serious global challenges revolve around energy – controlling it, paying for it and the consequences of burning it. As both one of the world’s biggest per capita users and exporters of fossil fuels, Australia is sure to be deeply affected by the radical changes coming down the energy pipeline. Yet there is a lot of confusion around the subject. Self-confessed fossil fuel junkie Dick Smith will try to separate the facts from the hot air. What are Australia’s options as we enter the age of energy disruption?
The Vasectomist
- 2013
- Documentary
- 52mins
- Status: Completed
THE VASECTOMIST follows Dr Doug Stein, a urologist from small-town Florida, on a mission to save the planet by ‘spreading the gospel of vasectomy’. He’s performed more vasectomies than anyone – 27,000 – throughout the US, Asia, Africa and the Caribbean. A modern day Don Quixote; part dreamer, madman and visionary committed to the impossible quest of lowering population on the planet, one vasectomy at a time. As he travels the world, Doug confronts the difficult ethical questions surrounding birth control and the reluctance of men to be involved in family planning. While the mathematical absurdity of his vasectomy mission haunts his every procedure, the questions Doug raises about the future of humankind are critical to our collective wellbeing.
