Lizzie Eastham and Sam Rickard present Studio 1 - Vision Australia Radio’s weekly look at life from a low vision and blind point of view.

On this week’s show

“Changing Track”

It’s unusual we release the podcast of a show before it airs, however we have our reasons...

“In a velodrome on the other side of the world, three Australian cyclists are about to chase a Paralympic dream that they could never have anticipated.”

A new documentary called “Changing Track” premieres in theatres around Australia on the 3rd December. Sam talks to Emily Petricola, one of the athletes featured; as well as writers and Producers: Timothy and Tristan Kenyon.

We present a preview of what to expect: some insights into the motivation of both the subjects of the film, and indeed the producers of it; and why seeing some films on the big screen is so important.
