The film Matsuo Keiu to sono haha (Keiu Matsuo and his mother) romanticizes his life and accomplishments to show both children and adults his bravery, patriotism, and love of family. It provides a mostly accurate historical summary of the basic facts concerning his life, but several details regarding the midget submarine attack at Sydney do not reflect what actually happened. The dialogue and some scenes seem to be created for the film to give a somewhat unrealistically positive image of Keiu Matsuo and his mother Matsue.

As Best I Can Remember is a reflection on the life of Sam Mattise from his youth, through World War II, his family, and his dairy business in Jermyn, Pennsylvania. This short portrait uniquely presents a story of early-mid 1900s American culture told by a man who lived through it.

Based on dozens of original scene-of-crime photos from the period 1940-1970 and contemporary written text, SPIRIT PATROL weaves an evocative tale of intrigue, betrayal and darkness set in Sydney in a period of intense cultural change and personal disruption. SPIRIT PATROL unfolds across the city - from the port, to drab suburban yards, from the seaside and the badlands of the urban fringe, into nocturnal back-rooms. The resolute B/W images, rhythmic composition, and haunting cinematic sound touch on the austerity and uncertainty of current times. SPIRIT PATROL is a new video by Ross Gibson and Kate Richards in the LIFE AFTER WARTIME suite - a significant body of Australian electronic media art created since 1999.
