Inspired by Tim Bowden’s popular biography, the world premier of One Crowded Hour: Neil Davis, Combat Cameraman tells a gripping tale of courage and dedication, illustrating the frontlines of conflicts across Southeast Asia through Tasmanian man Neil Davis’ lens.

After a childhood in the peaceful town of Sorell, Davis embarked on a journey to the world’s most dangerous regions of unrest. From the battlefields of Southeast Asia he captured horrific images of warfare and for more than 20 years his footage was broadcast into homes around the world.

This story of the combat cameraman features documentary footage, live performance and striking imagery wrapped in an atmospheric soundtrack.
