CinefestOZ welcomes special guests Donna Lyon, Shannon Owen and Nikki for their premiere screening of Left Write Hook and Q&A post film. Presented by Minderoo Foundation.
Two very different expressive arts – writing and boxing - are known to transform lives. But what if writing and boxing were combined? On the outskirts of Melbourne there exists a one-of-a-kind program for survivors of complex trauma. One line, one jab at a time, these eight participants are coming to know just what it means to work through their grief.
Journeys of recovery, transformation and friendship are laid out on the page and in the ring, in this documentary from director Shannon Owen.
Please note: This film contains themes of child sexual abuse and exploitation. Viewer discretion is advised.
