The Caretakers explores everyday devotion to spiritual architectural spaces through the prism of two caretakers from a mosque and a synagogue – Emanuel Synagogue. This short documentary film gives intimate, personal access to the locations these people care for by inviting viewers to experience spaces they may otherwise never think to set foot inside.

Commissioned by the Australian Film Television and Radio School (AFTRS) and the Sherman Centre for Creativity & Ideas (SCCI).
