Michael Caton - The Narrator
A legend of the Australian film & television industry, Michael Caton has performed in television, theatre and film both here in Australia and abroad during a career spanning over 40 years. Caton is most well known for his riveting and hilarious role as Darryl Kerrigan in in the much loved (and much quoted) feature film The Castle, and for playing Uncle Harry in the Australian television series, The Sullivans.
Caton has hosted his own shows including Hot Property, and starred in classic TV shows such as Stingers, Packed to the Rafters and Blue Heelers. For his performances and talent, Caton has been inducted into the Australian Film Walk of Fame and won an AACTA Award for Best Actor for his performance in the feature film Last Cab to Darwin. Michael hails from Monto in regional Queensland, and went to boarding school in Gympie, which is where his love of acting started.
Rachel Giddens - Mathilde
Rachel Giddens is an actress, visual artist and filmmaker based in Sydney. Rachel studied acting and film at various schools across Australia and internationally (AFTRS, AAFTALA, FTSI, TAFTA, etc.) and secured film & TV work with BBC Worldwide and various production companies during her time working in the industry. Rachel now works freelance primarily as a Visual Artist and Actress, dabbling behind the scenes occasionally.
Le Miroir is one of Rachel's most rewarding and favourite projects to date, its quirky and dreamlike storyline makes it an irresistible film as an actress, not to mention the glorious cast and crew involved. She can't wait to see where this film goes, and hopes the audience experiences the same playfulness and imagination watching this film that Rachel had making it.
Vivienne Powell - Madame B
Australian born actress and singer Vivienne Powell has a diverse performing arts background, including opera singer (Opera Australia, Pacific Opera), concert artist, cabaret and musical theatre performer, stage and screen actress.
Film credits include Ugly Benny, Beautiful Destroyer, Khali the Killer, Song From A Blackbird, which screened at the Cannes Film Festival, and Bridget and Iain, developed from the play, screening at numerous film festivals around the world, including Cannes and Manchester. TV credits include Judd Apatow’s Love (Netflix), Shameless (Showtime), All Saints, Home & Away, Deadly Women.
Vivienne thought Le Miroir was a beautifully written piece with a delicious European feel. With Madame B’s many levels for exploration, Vivienne was eager to bring her to life on screen as she had not played a character like her before.
Noah Wiseman - Tobias
Noah began acting from a very early age, earning international acclaim for his award-winning performance in Jennifer Kent’s The Babadook which premiered at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival. These awards include best actor at the 2014 Austin Fantastic Fest, best actor in a supporting role at the 2014 Australian Film Critics Association Awards and best performance by a young actor at the 2015 Film Critics Circle of Australia Awards.
