Heart of the Man – Melt Festival Q&A Screening

Saturday October 26 | Gates open 1 hour before the published session time

Followed by a Q&A with writer/director David Cook and cast members Parker Little, Roxanne McDonald (Aunty Roxy), and Matt Young

Experience the powerful new Aussie queer drama followed by a fascinating discussion with writer/director David Cook and cast members Parker Little, Roxanne McDonald (Aunty Roxy), and Matt Young, who will also moderate the chat!

Shot on location in Queensland, this emotional Indigenous LGBTQ+ coming of age drama centres on aspiring boxer Chris who lives under the shadow of his champion father, Sammy. Haunted by a family tragedy, Sammy pushes Chris to take a tilt at a national boxing championship, and while the young man is desperate to impress his fearsome father, he is destined to walk another road; one which doesn’t involve pain and violence.
