From Melbourne writer/director Adrian Chiarella comes Leviticus, the breakout Sundance Film Festival hit where desire becomes something deadly. 🪦

Set in regional Victoria, two teenage boys (Joe Bird and Stacy Clausen) are drawn together in a deeply conservative community, until their relationship is discovered and a sinister force is unleashed. Taking the form of what they desire most, each other, the entity turns their love into a terrifying curse. 🏳️‍🌈️‍💀

Leviticus was developed through VicScreen's Originate Features initiative and is produced by the team behind Talk to Me.

In cinemas today. 🎥🍿

The VicScreen supported documentary, Sumundimi Walks Before Me, has won the Sustainable Future Award at Sydney Film Festival. 🌿

The documentary follows an Indigenous community in Papua New Guinea as they fight to protect the Sepik River, “the Amazon of the Asia-Pacific”, from the threat of large-scale mining. When a global mining proposal puts this vital ecosystem at risk, community leader Emmanuel (Manu) Peni leads a grassroots campaign grounded in ancestral knowledge, culture and deep spiritual connection to land and water.

Filmmakers Matasila Freshwater and Lachlan McLeod capture a moving portrait of resilience, as the Sepik people defend not just their environment, but their identity.
