Hon David Templeman MLA attended the event and announced $18.72 million in funding to attract major productions, market WA as a film destination nationally and internationally, and to boost local industry capacity. 

Filmed in Western Australia and inspired by true events, Population 11 is a quirky 12-part series about a man who goes missing from a tiny outback town of only 12 residents (11 after the missing man), and his estranged son, who journeys from the U.S. to find him.

When Andy Pruden (Feldman), a suburban bank teller from Ohio, pulls into the tiny outback town to visit his long-lost father, he’s alarmed to discover that Hugo has vanished and all the other residents in town are now suspects in his disappearance. Aided by another outsider Cassie (Mooney), Andy finds himself in increasing danger as he delves into the secrets of this motley crew of outback weirdos in the quest to find his father.

Geraldine Walters, Darren Gilshenan (Stan Original Series No Activity, The Moodys) as Pruden’s missing father Hugo Drivas, and Stephen Curry (Stan Original Series Ten Pound Poms, Thor: Love and Thunder) as manipulative General Store owner Noel Pinkus.
