The Mission
Our mission is to use the power of storytelling to illuminate the silent struggles within Australian farming communities, raising awareness of mental health issues and the lack of comprehensive medical support in rural areas, fostering empathy, and driving the conversation around mental health. Through "Just A Farmer," we aim to inspire collective action, ensuring no farmer faces the darkness alone.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Tamara Bowles
“It’s been and while since I bought in so much to a story and the characters. Really felt so much towards the family/the kids/the wife/ the father/ the friend and cop/ the sister. Felt like I was on the journey with them and found it compelling and thralling”.
Kristy Steenhuis
“Raw, authentic, relatable, and beautiful!
To bring theses together and weave a challenging story that also delivers a message with such impact provided the viewer with an unforgettable experience”.
Bill Karametos
Highlights ripple effect of mental health and suicide in a way that gives you hope using soft but to the point language.
From the beginning I became one with the journey of each character and stayed with it right through to the end.
