Just Passing Through is a short documentary film on life as a full-time musician in Australia. Artists’ Gareth Liddiard, Sarah Blasko & Paul Dempsey clear a space in the messy tour van of their lives, to detail the long road behind overnight success. This is fame and fortune Australia style – unglamorous and hardly secure.
