Clean (2022)

豆知識

Clean is an Australian 2022 documentary film about the life of Sandra Pankhurst, a transgender woman who became best known for her work as a crime scene and trauma cleaner. The film centres on Pankhurst's journey from a difficult upbringing—which included adoption and an eventual teenage eviction—to her marriage and experiences with gender identity.

Production

David Elliot-Jones and Charlotte Wheaton of Walking Fish Productions produced Clean. Director Lachlan Mcleod first saw Pankhurst interviewed on the Australian television network, SBS, in a segment about the issue of hoarding. At this time, he had not read The Trauma Cleaner: One Woman's Extraordinary Life in Death, Decay & Disaster, a 2017 book authored by Sarah Krasnostein documenting Pankhurst's life.

In an interview with Screen Australia, Mcleod explained that Pankhurst took some time to trust the film crew, but her love for being on camera helped the film's production. Filming with Pankhurst initially took place ad hoc, with the production crew capturing parts of Pankhurst's work Mcleod felt were important to Pankhurst's story. Mcleod stated that the filming really "ramped up" in the final six months of production.
