This is an excerpt from Inside the Snowdome: Making Somersault (Cate Shortland, Australia, 2004).

Abbie Cornish wins Best Actress for Somersault at the IF (Inside Film) Awards, 2004.

Joe (Sam Worthington) and Heidi (Abbie Cornish) order dinner at a Chinese restaurant, after Joe’s mates have humiliated Heidi in the street outside.

At the local service station, Heidi (Abbie Cornish) inquires about a job. The young woman behind the counter, Bianca (Hollie Andrew) is curt and unfriendly.

Abbie Cornish was 21 years old when this film was made and the integrity and vulnerability of her performance is astonishing.

Photographer Hugh Hartshorne captured this still representing an early scene from Candy (Neil Armfield, Australia, 2006).
