Wake in Fright, GFT, 19th January
Sunday 19 January
This legendary Australian cult classic, considered a ‘lost’ film for almost forty years, tells the story of a young school teacher stranded in a brutal outback town. Martin Scorcese dubbed it ‘a deeply – and I mean deeply – unsettling movie. It left me speechless’, while Nick Cave calls it ‘the best and most terrifying film about Australia’. GFT’s screening is one of only three opportunities in the entire UK to catch this unforgettable masterpiece from a specially imported 35mm print.
