MATES
Short film
Director / Writer
Two old friends reunite in an Inner West Sydney terrace, but something simmers beneath the surface. What does it truly mean to be 'mates'?
““MATES features raw performances and a convincing body transformation that portrays with great empathy the vulnerabilities and traumas of its protagonists.””
“The story for MATES has a surprising rawness to it and walks a fine line between comedy and pathos, capturing the fragility of Australian male friendships.”
