Synopsis:

Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (1994):
This Oscar-Winning (Best Costume) comedy won the hearts of movie goers partly for its lavish costumes and devotion to Abba, but mostly for the great performances of three drag artists who are on the road trip of a lifetime!

Alvin Purple (1973):
A landmark Australian comedy about the permissive seventies where poor gormless Alvin (Graeme Blundell), who is looking for a sexless seventies, finds himself an inadvertant sex symbol, gigolo and porn star!

Crackerjack (2002):
Larrikin Aussie comedian MICK MOLLOY is Jack Simpson - office-worker, drifter and total scammer. When he joins the local bowling club just to score free inner-city parking, little does he know he may become the key to the future of the club! With the Cityside Club in financial straits and shady developer Bernie Fowler (JOHN CLARKE), breathing down its neck, the club is forced to enter a cash prize tournament. But with aging and ailing members, the team numbers are down. When they discover the enigmatic Jack on their books, they threaten to withdraw his membership and his car-park, if he doesn't play! With the battle lines drawn for a do or die match, the club's very existence now rests in Jack's hands.

Crocodile Dundee (1986):
New York reporter Sue travels to Australia to meet and interview Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee, a man who runs a safari business and has just survived an attacked by a crocodile. After spending a few days touring the safari park, Sue invites Mick to come back with her to visit New York. How would the clash of cultures and different life style affect the Aussie bushman? How do things turn out when Sue falls for his charms?

Dead Calm (1988):
Joe and Rae Ingram do the right thing and rescue the half-delirious sole survivor of a crippled Schooner. But soon the stranger will plunge the unwary pair into an intense battle of cat and mouse. And life or death.

Jindabyne (2006):
Stewart Kane, an Irishman living in the Australian town of Jindabyne, is on a fishing trip in isolated hill country with three other men when they discover the body of a murdered girl in the river. Rather than return to the town immediately, they continue fishing and report their gruesome find days later. Stewart's wife Claire is the last to find out. Deeply disturbed by her husband's action, her faith in her relationship with Stewart is shaken to the core. She wants to understand and tries to make things right. In her determination to help the victim's family Claire sets herself not only against her own family and friends but also those of the dead girl. Her marriage is taken to the brink and her peaceful life with Stewart and their young son hangs in the balance. The story of a murder and a marriage. A powerful and original film about the things that haunt us.

Mad Max (1979):
Max Rockatansky is a policeman in the near future who is tired of his job. Since the apocalypse, the lengthy, desolate stretches of highway in the Australian outback have become bloodstained battlegrounds. Max has seen too many innocents and fellow officers murdered by the bomb's savage offspring, bestial marauding bikers for whom killing, rape, and looting is a way of life. He just wants to retire and spend time with his wife and son but lets his boss talk him into taking a peaceful vacation and starts to reconsider. Then his world is shattered as a gang led by the evil Toecutter (Hugh Keays-Byrne) murders his family in retaliation for the death of one of its members. Dead inside, Max straps on his helmet and climbs into a souped-up V8 racing machine to seek his bloody revenge.

Proof (1991):
Celia (Geneviève Picot) is a young female housekeeper who becomes malicious towards her blind photographer employer, Martin (Hugo Weaving - Priscilla Queen of the Desert, The Matrix) when he spurns her advances. To retaliate she befriends Andy (Russell Crowe - L.A. Confidential, Gladiator), the only person Martin trusts.

Romper Stomper (1992):
Geoffrey Wright's daring and confrontational film is a terrifying experience in stark reality that helped make Russell Crowe an international star. Graphically violent and brutally honest it deals with a gang of neo-Nazi skinheads, led by the intimidating Hando (Crowe), who battles for white supremacy on the streets of Melbourne.

Wolf Creek (2005):
A chilling, factually-based, story of three road-trippers in remote Australia who are plunged into danger when they accept help from a friendly local.
