Dedicated and disciplined, Farah always brings her A-game, throwing herself deeply into each of her diverse range of characters. Her commitment, and desire to always achieve her best, is not only admirable, but also makes the job a lot easier for all those around her”
“In my business, I have to recognize unique and special talent. I believe Farah to have these necessary qualities. Farah shines in her screen presence, withholds an almost magnetic quality on film, plays with depth and emotional truth, a likable quality that really resonates with her audience. Farah already has a good body of work behind her, having been an actress and presenter on Australian long form drama, theatre and television marketer since a very young woman”
“I had the pleasure of directing Farah in a lead role in the short film Kill Your Sons. Her ability and presence on set was rapturous, pushing herself in every scene she had been given. She understood the different working conditions on set and was able to maintain a professional and affable relationship with fellow cast and crew. Her work ethic and ability to listen and interpret direction into an articulated and enthralling performance speaks of her empathy for character and story. This quality is something that will allow her to flourish in any role or endeavour in the future.”
