Meet the filmmaker whoâs devoting his life to save native quolls Weâre sorry, this service is currently unavailable. Please try again later. Dismiss Save Normal text size Advertisement In an on-demand world Simon Plowright is a paragon of patience. For his new nature documentary, Quoll Farm, the Tasmanian nature filmmaker spent a year living and shooting on an abandoned farm so he could get close to the native eastern quoll population. His reward, after months of cohabitation, was not just footage of the native marsupials foraging, breeding, and rearing joeys in their dens, but encounters where the tiny creatures impudently treat him as part of the furniture. The unadorned intimacy is quietly compelling.
