20 x Mad Bastards in-season double passes, courtesy of TransmissionWin tickets to this powerfully moving Aussie flick.
Warmly received by audiences at Sundance when it screened last year, Mad Bastards follows TJ, a hard-edged Aboriginal man who's sick of scraping out an existence in the city. He travels to the tiny frontier town of Five Rivers in search of his son. Upon his arrival, TJ is confronted by the equally tough local cop Texas... and so begins a story about hard men battling to do the right thing by their family.
Scored by the distinctive music of the Pigram Brothers in collaboration with Aussie singer-songwriter Alex Lloyd, stunningly shot in the Kimberley region, and boldly performed by a clutch of first-time actors, the directorial feature debut of Brendan Fletcher is powerful and moving stuff.
