Made for the 2016 OzAsia Festival as part of an experimental film screening, PACO is an exploration of Australian slang, Australia’s casual racism and filmmaking itself.

When an actress leaves set with one of Manny's microphones he must retrieve it or face dire consequences. Hearing only the sound from Manny's boom microphone, and the runaway actress' radio mic, we follow Manny on a treacherous journey through Music Videos, Timetravellers, the dreaded Sound Council and more. Paco is a film about filmmaking, the importance of sound, and the lifestyle of a freelance film creative.
