The beach shack in "Selkie", a South Australian film, is a homage to the South Australian Film Corporation 1976 film classic "Storm Boy".
Actor Shimon Moore, who played Jamie, was the lead singer of the "Sick Puppies" and director of the extraordinarily popular YouTube clip "Free Hugs".
In the mythology of the Celts of Scotland and Ireland, Selkies take their place alongside the legends of mermaids and mermen. According to folklore, wherever there are seals there will also be Selkies - creatures capable of shedding their seal skins and living as humans.
The reef and the jetty in the movie are Port Noarlunga's major assets as is the glorious beach and the surfing spots a few hundred metres south of the jetty. At the southern end of the surf beach is the Onkaparinga River which makes its way into the sea past high red cliffs.
Chelsea Bruland's debut.
