General Admission
In the dusty country town of Upson Downs, 11-year-old Annie Shearer and her best friend Runt are inseparable. Runt can perform the most astonishing tricks, yet this is something that only Annie knows since Runt tends to get a little shy around other humans.
Meanwhile, it hasn’t rained for some time and mean Earl Robert-Barren threatens Annie’s family’s farm by selfishly controlling the town’s water supply. An unlikely opportunity, at the Krumpets Dog Show in London, may be the answer to Annie’s family’s prayers.
Director John Sheedy (CinefestOZ 2019 Film Prize Winner H is for Happiness) is back with another delicious slice of bright Australiana. Sheedy has teamed up with writer Craig Silvey (Jasper Jones, Honeybee), who here adapts his own best-selling 2022 novel of the same name for the screen. Jai Courtney, Deborah Mailman, Celeste Barber, Jack Thompson bring colour to the outstanding ensemble cast.
