*“It’s all about passion,” said Michael O’Halloran, an Australian film director who just released his new feature sci-fi thriller Space/Time, when talking about dealing with the challenges of making films. “This is my first feature film.”
Space/Time, released by Epic Pictures Group, is about a group of scientists who have created a device to save humanity, even though their first try at it was disastrous. Space/Time stars Ashlee Lollback (Bloody Hell), Hugh Parker (Elvis), Pacharo Mzembe (Nautilus), Haroon Jafarey-Hall, Rob Horton (Take My Hand), Shaun King (Luca), Craig Gaffney (Break the Rock), Sophia Emberson-Bain (Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire), Gareth Harris (Casualty), Robin Darch (Goodbye, Tiger), Erin Connor (When Love Springs), Damien Campagnolo (Expats), Madison Sturgess (The Wilted Rose), Loretta Kung (Irreverent) and Cate Feldmann (Tidelands). The leader of the team Holt, played by Hugh Parker, is assisted by Liv played by Ashlee Lollback. They turn to the criminal underworld to continue working on the device. As they try to avoid the law and time the device becomes their passion. A passion that may save humanity or do something far worse.

“I’m very lucky. These are actors I’ve worked with before,” Michael informed me when I mentioned what a large cast he has for a low-budget film. “There’s already trust and a desire to work together. Also, in Australia, this is nota common space film. It’s unusual, so they respond to the story. In many cases, the roles were written for the actors.”
I asked Michael about stunt work in the film, and he said, “There are some stunts in Space/Tim,e mostly visual effects. Filmmaking is so difficult…so you have to work with people you can rely on.”
Space/Time is considered a low-budget film, and I asked O’Halloran about working with a low budget on a feature film with so many actors, and he said, “I use a couple of philosophies. You have to believe in it. Put in the time and work. There’s also the audience thing…props…location not available. You also have to surround yourself with smart people.”
“I hope it doesn’t change the spirit,” Michael said when I mentioned how one day he would have a big-budget film.
“It’s on video-on-demand on all major platforms,” O’Halloran added. “You can go to EpicPictures.com for more details.”

O’Halloran is known for making short films. I asked him what the difference is in making short films versus feature films.
“It’s a different type of storytelling…than short films. I try to condense feature films into a short film,” he told me.
“Science fiction is an interesting genre,” O’Halloran said when I asked why his first feature film was a sci-fi thriller. “It’s a good way to tell a simple story. A pathway to talk about larger themes…big ideas in big ways. I’m just a big sci-fi lover!”
“I have been … since a child in primary school and high school…short films,” Michael pointed out when I asked when his interest in films began. “Commercial work. I love cinema and all its forms.”
Michael O’Halloran’s credits include Windcatcher (Stan Original Films), Budjerah, for which he received an ARIA Award nomination for Best Video for Directors in 2024, and Is It Ever Gonna Make Sense.
