(http://thelowdownunder.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Starred-Up.png)


Flicks don’t come much more polarising than one of this years biggest festival hits Starred Up, starring up and comer Jack O’Connell (Unbroken) and our very own Ben Mendelsohn (Animal Kingdom) in this intense prison drama. To celebrate the home entertainment release of the film, Madman Entertainment and The Lowdown Under are giving you the chance to win 1 of 3 copies of the film on DVD.

“Commanding turns from O’Connell and Mendelsohn anchor this violent prison drama with enough humanity for it to really resonate. A potent and uncompromising film.” – Aaron Rowlands, The Lowdown Under

“Take one teenager. Add raw testosterone. Arm with unquenchable, unreasoning anger. Lock in pressure-cooker cell. Unleash. Roll camera.” – Kate Muir, The Times UK

“It marries ferocious, unnerving violence and waves of profanity to powerful, psychologically acute performances in a way that is intensely dramatic as well as almost unbearable to watch at times.” – Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times

Synopsis: 19-year-old Eric, arrogant and ultra-violent, is prematurely transferred to the same adult prison facility as his estranged father. As his explosive temper quickly finds him enemies in both prison authorities and fellow inmates—and his already volatile relationship with his father is pushed past breaking point—Eric is approached by a volunteer psychotherapist, who runs an anger management group for prisoners. Torn between gang politics, prison corruption, and a glimmer of something better, Eric finds himself in a fight for his own life, unsure if his own father is there to protect him or join in punishing him. Written by prison system therapist Jonathan Asser, STARRED UP is a merciless, uncompromising portrayal of a dehumanizing life behind bars.
