Support this project

Help realise the film’s full ambition

With You is supported through Screen Territory’s SPARK 2026 initiative. Additional private and corporate support funds the elements that take the film from functional to genuinely ambitious — professional sound design and composition, an experienced Assistant Director to support a first-time director, on-location logistics for cast and crew, Jawoyn Association partnership, and a full impact and festival campaign.

Director's pitch

Laurens Goud's pitch for the Australian Cultural Fund — a government-endorsed platform that allows donors to make fully tax-deductible contributions to Australian arts projects.

Phil Tarl Denson

"I'm thrilled to be a part of bringing this film to life with Laurens and the team. My writing often explores those liminal spaces where the physical and the metaphysical converge. Complex human emotions manifesting in a character's world and them only being able to overcome them through a deeper internal struggle or self-acceptance. This project not only encapsulates those themes through visual storytelling, it uses the innate beauty and fear of the natural landscape as a canvas. I'm excited to dive in deeper With You."
