Movie Filmed In Our Funiture Workshop
On the 7th and the 8th of January Nyora Studio became a movie set. Scenes from the movie ‘Suite for Fleur’ -Written & Directed by Ruth Brown Produced by Ron Brown- were shot at Nyora Studio in Aldo Bilottas’ Funiture workshop. The film which features actors such as Luke Jacobz and Angry Anderson is a romantic comedy set in Byron Bay. Nyora Studio was very excited to host such an event. We wish the film, its actors and its crew all the best.
