Nitram at Glasgow Film Theatre
1 – 7 July, 2022
Caleb Landry Jones’s electrifying performance as the title character burns through the screen in Justin Kurzel’s (Macbeth, True History of the Kelly Gang) disturbing, unsensational and utterly riveting dramatisation of events leading to the 1996 Port Arthur Massacre in Tasmania.
Angry, isolated and never able to fit in at school, ‘Nitram’ still lives at home with his battle-weary mother (Judy Davis) and loving father (Anthony LaPaglia). An unexpected friendship with an eccentric heiress (Essie Davis, The Babadook) offers him a brief taste of a very different life, but proves a temporary diversion on his inexorable path towards disaster.
