Synopsis
Mild-mannered schoolteacher John Grant finds himself stranded in the desolate outback town of Bundanyabba on his way to Sydney. What begins as a brief stopover spirals into a harrowing descent as John becomes entangled in the town's culture of gambling, heavy drinking, and unchecked violence. Stripped of his dignity and self-control, he faces the raw brutality of the Australian outback and the darkest corners of his psyche. Wake in Fright is an unflinching exploration of human vulnerability, survival, and moral decay, hailed as one of Australia’s most haunting cinematic masterpieces.
Good News! Luna Cinemas will be holding over Wake in Fright for an additional screening on Tues, 15 April at 6:45pm. So start practising your Two-Up game!
