Adelaide, the capital city of South Australia, is as intrinsic a personality as the human characters in 'The Flip Side'. Writer-director Marion Pilowsky's passion for telling the story in her home-town was endorsed wholeheartedly by producer Sue Murray, who said: "It was always going to be shot there. There was never a discussion about anywhere else. Because Adelaide's a really interesting place and a lot of very creative people come from Adelaide, yet a lot of them feel the need to leave to try and explore their careers elsewhere. It is really beautiful in lots of ways, the Barossa Valley and the McLaren Vale and the beaches and so forth. It's a great place to live. But it's also not the absolute hub, in terms of most people's view of where the major energy and creative force is in the country. So the fact that our protagonist is a chef in Adelaide is not the same as if she were based in Sydney or Melbourne. And also it's a place that Marion knows extremely well and it added to the film a lot. So always it was in Adelaide. It was originally called 'Via Adelaide', in fact."
