Duration: 85 minutes
Join us in May for this brilliant new Australian documentary. Go on an epic road trip with the Bells, a sixth-generation carnival family, as they haul their convoy of trucks, rides and workers from Batemans Bay to Darwin and back. Filmed over seven captivating years and capturing the most intimate moments with the Bells, this road-trip through Australia is like nothing you've seen before: it’s through the eyes of The Carnival.
For a century, the Bell family has toured across Australia with their traveling carnival, preserving their unique legacy as they prepare each generation for succession. Now, as the next boy in line faces an uncertain future, the portrait of a lineage struggling for survival emerges, with a family fighting to preserve their traditional way of life while confronting the relentless challenges and setbacks of the modern world.
