The trouble with love is you never know when it’s going to strike next, in this 30th anniversary screening of Emma-Kate Croghan and Stavros Kazantzidis’ recently remastered classic about chaotic student life.
Mia (Frances O’Connor, Mansfield Park), an ambitious film studies student, finds herself entangled in a web of lies as she tries to avoid her girlfriend Danni (Radha Mitchell, High Art) moving in. Mia’s housemate Alice is a frustrated perfectionist, four years late with her thesis, she wants a man who shares her movie taste. Their search for love and a new housemate transcends the boundaries of the university, as events begin to unscramble in unexpected ways.
Featuring a host of Australian talent including Kim Gyngell (Full Frontal), Matt Day (Rake) and Matthew Dyktynski (Reckless), Love and Other Catastrophes explores the humorous and sometimes tumultuous journey of young adulthood and the quest for love amidst life's catastrophes.
This is a free outdoor event at The Rocks Laneway Cinema, screening as part of the Queer Screen Mardi Gras Film Festival. Registration will open from 10 Feb.
