"I'm very lucky. These are actors I've worked with before," Michael informed me when I mentioned what a large cast he has for a low budget film. "There's already trust and a desire to work together. Also, in Australia this is not common - space films. It's unusual, so they respond to the story. In many cases the roles were written for the actors."

I asked Michael about stunt work in the film and he said, "There are some stunts in Space/Time mostly visual effects. Filmmaking is so difficult...so you have to work with people you can rely on."

Space/Time is considered a low-budget film, and I asked O'Halloran about working with a low budget on a feature film with so many actors and he said, "I use a couple of philosophies. You have to believe in it. Put in the time and work. There's also the audience thing...props...location not available. You also have to surround yourself with smart people."

"I hope it doesn't change the spirit," Michael said when I mentioned how one day he will have a big budget film.

"It's on video-on-demand on all major platforms," O'Halloran added. "You can go to EpicPictures.com for more details."

A Mohworks Films production, Space/Time was released in the United States January 13, 2026, and is available on video-on-demand (VOD). Space/Time was released in Australia and New Zealand in 2025. The script is written by Adam Harmer (The Dossier Case). Epic Pictures, that is distributing Space/Time, also produces and finances film projects. Epic Pictures distributes on average 30 films a year through its Epic Pictures Releasing. In 2017 it launched DreadTV and in 2019 it ventured into horror gaming at DreadXP.com. In 2020 it started its own video game production and publishing division DreadXP.

O'Halloran is known for making short films. I asked him what the difference is in making short films versus feature films.

"It's a different type of storytelling...than short films. I try to condense feature films into a short film," he told me.

"Science fiction is an interesting genre," O'Halloran said when I asked why his first feature film was a sci-fi thriller. "It's a good way to tell a simple story. A pathway to talk about larger themes...big ideas in big ways. I'm just a big sci-fi lover!"

"I have been...since a child in primary school and high school....short films," Michael pointed out when I asked when his interest in films began. "Commercial work. I love cinema and all its forms."

Michael O'Halloran's credits include Windcatcher (Stan Original Films), Budjerah, which he received an ARIA Award nomination for Best Video for Directors in 2024, and Is It Ever Gonna Make Sense. A 2007 graduate of Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane, Australia (QTU) with a bachelor's in fine arts in film and TV, O'Halloran owns Mohworks Films.  www.EpicPictures.com

Buckle, who has released many films through his company 360 Sound and Vision, said the motivation for this documentary was to present the truth about Egypt's most controversial Pharoah Akhenaten. According to the documentary Akhenaten was a very popular Pharoah and was born Amenhotep IV. He changed his name five years into his rule. It explains why he made that name change during his rule of Egypt in the 18th Dynasty. It talks about the rule of his son/son-in-law Tutankhamun at five years-old and what his advisors did and the mysteries behind his death at age 18.

"...It's history that was lost. I want to tell the truth about what happened to us in the past," Dwayne pointed out when I asked what his motivation was in making a documentary on Akhenaten. "It's been written by people who didn't understand."

Just as famous and popular as Akhenaten was his wife Nefertiti, who had six daughters with him. She was just as popular because of her personality and physical beauty. Akhenaten, who left behind many poems, had one that called Nefertiti - "beauty comes."

According to the Great Mysteries of Akhenaten, one of his daughters married Tutankhamun and that is how he became King of Egypt at the age of five years-old. It documents how Akhenaten's wife Nefertiti served as Pharoah for a time. Details are provided about Akhenaten's other son Smenkhkare.

"In the documentary you can see...his belief in one God," Dwayne said.

He said historians have portrayed Akhenaten as white and that the people who built the pyramids were slaves. Falsehoods according to Buckle.

"They were not slaves. It was a great economy and city. Well-constructed 12, 000 years in advance (of Akhenaten's rule). Akhenaten came later. There was lots of gold, lots of greenery and wheat," Dwayne continued. "His wife (Nefertiti) was known as a loving person. They had six daughters together."

The documentary also suggests other unknown details about Nefertiti. It is known now that they were a very popular couple. The documentary also brings out that Moses was a follower of Akhenaten and much more about the birth of Christianity.

"That history has been buried. The Alexandria books were burned...history about the slave trade...lots of that history was burned," Buckle pointed out.

"When we learn about ancient Greeks...they marveled at ancient Egypt," Dwayne said. "Everything was devoted to God."

"(At the time) There were several gods of ancient Egypt. Aten was a god but back then they wrote in hieroglyphic and a ‘sun' meant god," he pointed out when I was talking about Akhenaten worshipping the sun. "Hieroglyphics were their language. It (‘sun') is just a word for god. A symbol that looks like the sun. There is a connection in the Bible to ancient Egypt."

The documentary also brought out how Akhenaten changed how art was styled or depicted. He demanded it be more real-life. You can tell the difference in his images as the latest show him with long facial bone structure and belly. This began the debate on why his features and body shape is that way.

"It is something that families can watch together," Dwayne said about his Great Mysteries of Akhenaten documentary which was release in late 2025 and is currently streaming at TUBI TV. "To reeducate them."

Director Dwayne Buckle, a native New Yorker, has his own film studio 360 Sound and Vision. His company has produced and released many films such as The Minority, about race, which won a Choice Award in 2007. Another film is The Glasses (2006), about a guy who finds glasses that can see into the future. His The Glasses film received a Platinum Award in 2008. He released Cybornetics in 2012, a film about life in the future. Then released The Glasses 3D released in 2022.

Buckle has produced over 54 projects, not to mention the many projects he has directed or did the sound for. His Great Mysteries of Akhenaten is also available on DVD and Blu-Ray. Some of his other projects, aside from being on TUBI, are also on Prime Video and Fawesome.  www.360SoundandVision.com www.Tubi.com
