Despite the Night
Rising stars Joe Bird and Ed Oxenbould play brothers agonising over whether to stay with their grandmother in a looming environmental collapse.
As a volcanic ash cloud plunges northern Australia into an eternal night, Cole (Joe Bird, Leviticus) begs his emphysemic brother Moss (Ed Oxenbould, Head South, MIFF 2024) to flee the sealed apartment where they’ve been caring for their ailing grandmother. A quiet struggle unfolds between them as an oppressive inertia swallows their city.
