Synopsis

SALT is the story of award winning and internationally renowned photographer, Murray Fredericks on his annual solo pilgrimage to the heart of Lake Eyre in the remote north corner of South Australia. It is a piece on the personal journey of the artist, the creative process and the landscape itself. Alone on the most featureless landscape on earth, Murray's personal video diary captures the beauty of this bleak, empty and desolate environment - and provides the catalyst for an unexpected personal transformation. Told with subtlety, care and gentle dry humor, SALT is the story of what emanates from emptiness. By combining the breathtaking imagery of this surreal landscape with the hauntingly delicate sounds of Aajinta's "Harmonic Sphere's, it attempts to identify what lies beneath the surface of our reality and how 'something' can be produced from 'nothing'. SALT interweaves Murray's sublime pictures...

Interesteg What makes it different from others?
Borgarkeri A bit overrated, but still an amazing film
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
nickname1 I had no idea what I was going to see, so a photographer's journey towards the centre of Lake Eyre in Australia wasn't what I expected.However, the film has a good narrative, and enough time-lapses of the night/day sky to satisfy many of my wanderlust dreams.It was interesting to see various items of (undoubtedly expensive) modern photographic paraphernalia being deployed around the camp site, as well as the surreal plaque like surface of the lake with white crystalline salt forced up between the edges of the (slightly darker) horizontal salt plaques.The pay-off of the entire film are the images that were produced in this expedition (and a couple of others) - breathtakingly good.All things considered, an uplifting documentary!
peter9804 I thought this movie was absolutely incredible. It was a movie I had no expectation for, I thought it might be interesting in the least. It was so much more. The first thing and the major thing for me was a combination of both the cinematography and the photography. Take some incredible work on a camera, and then twist it in with this battler's life story, and you get quite a hectic movie.The acting is real, it is a documentary, everything that happens, happens. Our friend takes us on a journey through his life. Amazing.I almost feel a bit weird writing this, but in addition, the directors review available on the DVD when purchased is actually well worth the $$. The director and producer talk non-stop about the complexities of the film and how it was shot. Some of the insights they have I have never heard explained. Great stuff!
radesign-1 Murray Fredericks has caught onto something lost. This short film was great. It was more of an artistic perspective, both photographic and cinematographic, of extreme conditions. It felt more like soul searching than adventures, but that is OK. It felt genuinely...human. I was surprised to find how moving this was. His technical know how and expertise made the difference. Staring down the lens of his cameras I am sure only caught a glimpse of the overwhelming feelings associated with them in first-person, but wow. That was very, very interesting. A unique struggle with the human and the void. The photography was amazing. I wish to thank you personally.
