The Australian film Kenny is a great example of art imitating life - and the tax-effectiveness in backing a film.

The film was inspired by the experiences Glenn Preusker, founder of Splashdown, the executive bathroom rental company featured in the film. Preusker was born to be an entrepreneur. He left school at 15 to start a plumbing apprenticeship, and at 16 started his 1st business installing central heating. Being driven from job to job by his mother proved no problem. He started employing others while he signed up customers and supervised.

When he was 19, he and his older cousin were asked to manage the family plumbing business. Together they took it from maintenance work to installing plumbing in new commercial buildings. Within 5 years turnover quadrupled. The business still operates and its founder, Preusker’s 98-year-old grandfather, is Victoria’s oldest licensed plumber. Full article.
