Join us for a very special screening of cult classic Bad Boy Bubby in company of the director Rold fe Heer and actor Nicholas Hope.
Bubby is a man in his late thirties who has never left the small, squalid flat he shares with his domineering mother. Kept isolated his entire life, convinced the outside world is poisoned and deadly, Bubby exists in a state of arrested development, mimicking the speech and behaviour of those around him like a human recording device. When his long-absent father suddenly reappears and shatters the only world Bubby has ever known, a series of shocking events propels him out into a journey of self-discovery through the streets of Adelaide.
Released in 1993, Bad Boy Bubby remains one of Australia’s most singular movies. Part dak fable, part raw social comedy, the film premiered at the 50th Venice Film Festival where it won both the Grand Jury Prize and the FIPRESCI Prize.
This screening will be introduced and followed by an extensive Q&A with the director Rold fe Heer and the Bad Boy himself, Nicholas Hope.
Winner Grand Jury Prize Venice Film Festival
"A memorable, affecting and quietly exceptional tale." - Film Written Magazine
