The choice of each of these locations has contributed to the film’s authenticity and visual atmosphere. Here, check out some of the places where certain important scenes were shot:
- New South Wales: Much of the filming took place in this region, including rural and desert areas that provide the appropriate setting for the film. Locations such as Broken Hill, Hay and Kurnell, known for their arid landscapes, were used for some scenes.
- Sydney: Some parts of the production were carried out in studios and around the city (Melrose Park, Disney Studios and Terrey Hills) which served to film scenes requiring more controlled and elaborate sets.
