Anya Beyersdorf.
Prolific screenwriter Anya Beyersdorf says her excitement level has gone through the roof as she collaborates with director Rachel Ward on one of the segments of the ABC’s female-driven Shakespeare Now anthology.
Enjoying a career high, Beyersdorf is also working on an Every Cloud Productions’ drama and developing multiple projects with writer-director Miranda Nation, Aquarius Films, Truant Pictures and US director Alexis Ostrander.
“I have had a privileged, lucky lockdown,” she tells If. “I think I would have gone mad if I didn’t have all these scripts and virtual writers’ rooms. It’s kept me connected and doing meaningful things.”
Hoodlum Entertainment and Margot Robbie’s LuckyChap Entertainment are developing Shakespeare Now, consisting of fresh re-interpretations of Romeo and Juliet, The Tempest, Macbeth, Love’s Labour’s Lost, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Richard III, The Merchant of Venice and Twelfth Night.

Quickcard Review
Sweetgrass
Directed by: Ilisa Barbash, Lucien Castaing-Taylor
Cast: John Ahern, Pat Connolly, lots of sheep
Running Time: 1 hr 40 min
Rating: unrated
Complete Coverage – 33rd Portland International Film Festival
Country: United States
Plot: The filmmakers document the final 150 mile trek that two shepherds make, escorting a large amount of sheep through the mountains of Montana.
Who’S It For? You don’t have to love sheep, but it may help. Any documentary fans should enjoy this very entertaining film.
Overall
Sweetgrass starts with sheep, which is indicative of what it’s about. Two anthropologist/filmmakers direct this film that documents the last trail ride of two shepherds (they seem more like cowboys, maybe sheepboys?) who herd their charges across 150 miles of terrain through the Absaroka-Beartooth Mountains in Montana. The film starts with sheering and lambing, and though humans are present, they rarely speak. Barbash and Castaing-Taylor take a backseat...
