Wake in Fright
Live via Skype: Filmmaker TED KOTCHEFF
A lost classic of Australian cinema reemerges nearly 40 years later as electrifying an experience as it was when it premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in 1971. Long unavailable and now fully restored, this legendary and controversial film tells the harrowing tale of a naïve young schoolteacher who travels to the Australian Outback. There he confronts the backwards-thinking and foreboding locals, unforgiving terrain, and his own inner demons following five drunken, lost days of gambling and sordid sexual encounters.
