We are delighted to present Zoe Pepper's debut feature, which premiered at Tribeca and was shot in WA. This sharp, hilarious comedy thriller also screened at Cinefest OZ, Perth Festival, Sydney, Adelaide and Melbourne International Film Festivals.
Join us for an exclusive Q&A screening with WA director Zoe Pepper, at Luna Leederville on Tuesday, 19 May at 6.30pm.
After an eviction, a son and his pregnant wife refuse to leave his parents’ home in this biting satire about intergenerational wealth. A breakthrough Aussie dark comedy debut.
Newly evicted and jobless, 30-something Cory (Travis Jeffery) and his heavily pregnant wife, Jasmine (Maria Angelico), have no choice but to move into his childhood home – but just until they get back on their feet, of course. But this temporary measure slowly becomes a parasitic imposition on Cory’s baby-boomer parents (Michael Hurst and Linda Cropper), with absurd and ludicrous consequences. Cory is determined to prove that he can earn his stripes as “man of the house” – even if that house isn’t his.
Sharp and farcical, Western Australian director Zoe Pepper’s transition from stage to screen is a twisted take on privilege, the housing crisis, and a disillusioned generation that hits very close-to-home indeed.
