Join us on August 21 for the World Premiere of Limelight Documentary, as we give voice to the first Australian pioneers of the moving image.
LIMELIGHT is a feature documentary that tells the untold story of The Salvation Army’s Limelight Department, founded in Australia 1891, and through revolutionary magic lantern shows, film projection, music and performance, became one of the world's first film studios, paving the way for the birth of the Australian film industry until it was forced to close its doors in 1910, ending a never-to-be-repeated chapter in The Salvation Army history.
