Celebrated Australian author Tim Winton will front documentary mini-series “Ningaloo With Tim Winton” for wildlife and nature programmer Love Nature. Written and narrated by him, Winton will share …
Written and narrated by him, Winton will share personal stories of the animals and people drawn to the Ningaloo region of Western Australia, which is a biodiversity hotspot that survives in near pristine condition due to its extreme isolation.
The series is scheduled to roll out on Love Nature’s linear and streaming platforms and Sky Nature in the U,K., Germany and Italy later this year. Flame Distribution is handling worldwide distribution outside of the co-producer territories. The series will highlight how the Ningaloo Reef maintains vital ecological links to the rugged Cape Range and the nursery of Exmouth Gulf. Each is connected to and supports the other. Together, they are a haven for migratory species spanning almost a third of the globe – from Antarctica to Siberia and Cape York to Cape Town.
Winton is known for several books that have been adapted as feature films including “Dirt Music,” “Breath” and “In the Winter Dark,” and into TV series including “Cloudstreet” and “Lockie Leonard.”
