BASIN FEATURES IN THE BIG PICTURE
Lake Eyre Basin features strongly in a large-format film Australia: Land Beyond Time that has been pre-sold to IMAX theatres across Australia and around the world.

The film, to be released in the second half of 2002, explores the raw beauty and natural history of the great southern continent and is specially designed to bring this ancient land to life on the giant screen.

Australia: Land Beyond Time is about the ingenuity of life adapting to an ancient, largely arid environment, and the strategies many species have developed to survive the Earth’s most challenging extremes.

Much of the footage was shot in the Lake Eyre Basin and shows the flora and fauna of the dry landscape responding to the flooding of 2000.

Australia: Land Beyond Time is part of the ‘life-long learning’ philosophy and will be supported in this role by a companion website that will deliver educational information on the subject, links to other sites, as well as insights into the making of the film.

An estimated world-wide audience of 20 million will view our special part of the planet over the next four years.
