The Tree is off to Cannes

From the red dust to the red carpet....

The Tree crew are more used to red dust storms than red carpet celebrities. But, yes, its true! The Tree will be the closing film at this year's Cannes Film Festival. The Tree will screen for the first time ever, as a special event, on Sunday, the 23rd May. Your trusty blogger will be sneaking aloong to the festivities to keep you updated on all of the excitement.

Here are some behind-the-scenes snapshots of Julie Bertuccelli and crew, not quite in a their red carpet finery, but out on the dusty and desolate road, in the stunning landscape near Winton in west Queensland.
