The Backtrack Boys star in a new documentary!

The Backtrack Boys is a new documentary about Bernie Shakeshaft and the crew from BackTrack Youth Works. Following on from the early days of BackTrack which I wrote about in Wild Boys, the film features the stories of three boys – Rusty, Zach and Alfie – and shows the life changing transformation they undergo through their involvement with BackTrack and dogs and all that happens at the shed. At the film’s premier at the Sydney Film Festival five days ago, The Backtrack Boys received a well-deserved standing ovation.

Check out the The Backtrack Boys trailer and a recent article from the Northern Daily Leader:

Congratulations to filmmaker Catherine Scott and to all the crew at BackTrack!

Big screen debut: Armidale's highly renowned Backtrack program will be hitting the big screen on Sunday as one of the features of the Sydney Film Festival.
