Production

The film was made by a largely amateur group who formed a company, Fine art Film, in 1927 with a capital of £2,000.

Their first production was the Pacific Island adventure, Trobriana, which was never released. Scenes were shot on beaches near Sydney and interiors in the Mosman Town Hall. Natives were played by Sydney lifeguards in black face.

It was known during filming as Pearl of the Pacific.

Cast member Elza Stenning married sculptor Lyndon Dadswell in 1930; she had a small part in F. W. Thring's Harmony Row then became an opera star; they divorced in 1939. She married financier Ian Mathieson Jacoby and as Elsa Jacoby became a well-known Sydney society matron.
