Strange Creatures
Riley Nottingham (Thank God You’re Here) and Johnny Carr (Five Bedrooms) play estranged brothers in this amusing yet poignant Australian feature debut from Henry Boffin (Metro Sexual).
Proud pansexual Nate hasn’t spoken to his brother Ged in over four years following an intense falling out. But when their mother passes away, the brothers must set aside their differences to fulfil her dying wish: to scatter her ashes at the old family home in remote Narrabri. Setting out across Australia in a black hearse – courtesy of Nate’s funeral director boyfriend – they’re forced to finally face the ghosts of their past in this wry comedy-drama that will have you feeling all the feels.
Content warning: contains discussions of suicide.
