The Incubator Creative Hub's All About ART programme is back for 2026, screening diverse arts-inspired documentaries from around the globe.

Commencing our documentary programme for the year is Ellis Park, a 2025 documentary which gives us a glimpse into the mind of revered musician Warren Ellis (The Dirty Three and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds) and his deeply personal connection to the wildlife sanctuary he co‑founded in Sumatra.

Blending music biography with environmental advocacy, the film follows Ellis through creativity, addiction, recovery, and his work rescuing trafficked and injured animals. Ellis Park also highlights the exceptional animal activist work of Femke den Haas and her devoted welfare team at the wildlife sanctuary in the forests of Sumatra, Indonesia. This film documents the lead up to Warren’s first trip to Ellis Park, the wildlife sanctuary that he co-founded and bears his name.
