The
IFTA nominated drama, ‘The Last Confession of Alexander Pearce’, an
Irish-Australian co-production has been picked up by UK broadcaster
Channel 4.

The
drama, which recently won an Inside Film Award and an APRA Screen Music
Award, stars Adrian Dunbar (The Crying Game), Ciaran McMenamin (One
Hundred Mornings), Dan Wyllie (Chopper), Don Hany (California King)
& Chris Haywood (Shine). The film depicts the final days of convict
Alexander Pearce’s life in Van Diemen’s Land.

Director of ‘The Last
Confession of Alexander Pearce’ and co-writer is Michael James Rowland
(Lucky Miles) and producer and co-writer is Nial Fulton who is thrilled
at the prospect of the film reaching a wider international audience.
“This film never ceases to amaze me,” says Fulton. “We always knew it
was a little bit special but it just keeps punching above its weight.
Winning the IF Award and getting an AFI nomination is a fantastic
acknowledgement and testament to the efforts of a stellar cast and
crew. Getting the opportunity to screen the film on Channel 4 allows us
to reach a huge audience. I grew up watching Channel 4 push the
envelope so we’re in pretty esteemed company.”
