Actor Tiriel Mora, who played Darryl Kerrigan's lawyer in The Castle, is one of the stars in the short film The Last Babushka Doll.
Leura-based Mora is a big fan of anyone filming in the Mountains and is involved in shoots with three other filmmakers in the process of production in the Mountains - Matt Drummond, Michael Joy and Heath Davis.
“I’m a great supporter of anyone who gets anything up in the Mountains,” he told the Gazette.
He called the Babushka film, which deals with euthanasia, “profound, very nuanced and beautifully written”.
“I’m really looking forward to seeing this,” he said.
Playing the role of a paramedic he had developed a new respect for their profession. “They deal with human tragedy every day.”
Mora is also working on a podcast with fellow Babushka star and Katoomba resident Chris Gabardi.
