Rosemary Myers

While being yet another in a long line of films about broaching adulthood, Girl Asleep addresses the awkward transition using fantastical elements, which just might be the best way to capture how foreign this period of life really feels. The film is adapted from a play staged by Adelaide’s Windmill Theatre, with many of the key players being more active in the theater than the film community. Director Rosemary Myers is Windmill Theatre’s artistic director and boasts no other film credits, as does costume/production designer Jonathan Oxlade.
