Frank and Ava Gardner live out in the country, amongst the kookaburras and the cattle. Their jobs are menial, but they are true romantics at heart. Moving between fact and fiction, Hollywood and Spain, past and present, “Chainsaw” is a chain of stories about romance and celebrity, machismo and chainsaws, fantasy and death. And how the natural world endures.

Dennis Tupicoff lives and works in Australia where he directed several movies: “Silly & Serious: William Robinson and self portraits” (2008), “Taringa 4068: Our Place and Time” (2002), “Into the Dark” (2001), “The Heat, The Humidity” (1999), “His Mother’s Voice” (1997), “The Darra Dogs” (1993), “The Bear” (1990), “Dance of Death” (1983), “My Big Chance” (1977), “Please Don’t Bury Me” (1976).
