Two anarchistic brothers live by petty thievery and try to recover from their Catholic upbringing.

Before an office complex is set to be demolished, it expresses one last wish: a love story. It centers around desire, security, and a melody that runs through the entire fabric of the building. So when darkness descends and everything falls silent, the routine lives of those within its walls sparkle like stars, paving the way for intimate chance encounters and absurd humor to unfold. A nocturnal kaleidoscope of longing, loneliness and freedom.

The Final Winter

Sep 6, 2007

Rugby league is arguably the toughest form of football on the planet played by men that play the game hard and live even harder. Set in Sydney in the 1980s, the movie is a drama about the effects upon the players, supporters and the game itself as the sport grows from being the semi-pro suburban game it's been for nearly 100 years into a fully professional international sport. Superbly written and acted by Matt Nable, a former football player along with other former players mixed in with some internationally recognised actors, the story is a realistic snapshot into the lives of people for whom the game is a weekend escape from their otherwise ordinary lives. That's all about to change as big business realises the potential the game holds leaving those clinging to the old ways in their wake.

brothers who love

Invalid Date

When two brothers get together for dinner and start trading stories about their girlfriends, their comfort with one another leads them to reveal a bit too much. To the rhythm of its sultry score, the film folds pithy observations on love — both romantic and fraternal — into a compendious morality tale that’s as funny as it is disturbing.
