“While ‘Anno 2020’ is very well received by cinemagoers. We believe it is tailormade for viewing on streaming platforms given its multimedia style. And, sometimes contentious handling of the lockdowns and other pandemic-related challenges experienced in 2020,” he said.
“The travel restrictions prevented us from always physically being on set – except for the Australian scenes. Even then, we had to film clandestinely at times.”
The Official Trailer for Anno 2020 Directed by James Morcan
Anno 2020 is directed by Australian writer-director James Morcan. He adapted the ‘Anno 2020’ screenplay from his published novel of the same name. The film is an epic mystery-drama shot in 17 cities, on four continents and features dialogue in four different languages.
The fil is billed as a global kaleidoscope of interconnected characters. These seeking redemption, answers and justice amidst the chaos of 2020. Its cast members are an ensemble of renowned actors from around the world.
They include leading Australians Erin Connor (Occupation: Rainfall), and Greg Poppleton (The Chronicles of Narnia). Brett Partridge (Water Rats) and Audrey Nitschke (Wolf Like Me). American veterans Kevin Scott Allen (American Primeval), Sheila Ball (Assault On VA-33). Also La Rivers (Equal Standard), as well as Chinese-American Crystal J. Huang (Dark Feathers), as well as rising US actor-singer Jessica Castello (Oildale).
Morcan agreed ‘Anno 2020’ has been crafted specifically for the streaming experience.
“Anno 2020 is an alternative movie with controversial themes that mainstream outlets would likely censor,” he said.
“It was apt that one of the awards it won was ‘Best Experimental Film.’ It won it at the Titan International Film Festival here in Australia. That award is reflective of the revolutionary filmmaking and storytelling techniques we used.”
