THE GREY

IN SEARCH OF

In the Snowy Mountains of Australia's alps, an expedition is being launched to trek into the wilds to find an elusive stallion, known as The Grey. However, the Brumbies are no longer welcome in these mountains, and a wild horse cull blocks Remy's access and threatens the stallion's life. Remy and his team must battle the weather, terrain and expanse of the ranges in the race against time to find the wild Grey before it's too late.

"I’ve been travelling to the Snowy Mountains ever since I was a child and it’s become one of my most cherished places to explore in Australia. The rugged landscape, the crisp alpine air, the scribbles on the snow gums and the crystal clear water running between the granite stones are all intrinsic elements of the Snowies ingrained in my heart.

When I encountered this impressive Brumby back in 2022 I recognised how special of a moment it was. Even though I was there to film the landscape and the wildlife I was aware I was experiencing perhaps a once-in-a-lifetime behaviour, where a wild animal seeks out a friendly interaction with you, a human. I had abandoned my camera and instead gave my entire attention to this Brumby. For the remainder of the afternoon until the sun set and the crickets ceased their chirping, I tried to communicate silently with my new Brumby friend. We seemed to be both studying each other and with genuine curiosity, trying to understand the other more completely.

I hadn't registered how much it would shape my future and how strongly I would hold onto that memory. My first Brumby film, Brumbies of Kosciuszko, released only a few months after meeting this Brumby and the response was overwhelming. It has since reached over 150,000 views online and was nominated in several film festivals. I've been given this opportunity to return to the Snowy Mountains with a clear goal in mind to produce my most ambitious film yet, and hopefully reconnect with my old Grey friend." - Remy
