Judy & Punch
Q&A Preview Event

JUDY & PUNCH is the bracingly original directorial debut by Mirrah Foulkes. See her live in conversation with David Michôd, with special appearances by Mia Wasikowska, Damon Herriman and producer Michele Bennett. Be one the first to discover Australia’s latest visionary talent at this very special Filmmakers Spotlight event screening.

In the anarchic town of Seaside, nowhere near the sea, puppeteers Judy and Punch are trying to resurrect their marionette show. The show is a hit due to Judy’s superior puppeteering, but Punch’s driving ambition and penchant for whisky lead to an inevitable tragedy that Judy must avenge. In a visceral and dynamic live-action reinterpretation of the famous 17th century puppet show, writer director MIRRAH FOULKES turns the traditional story of Punch and Judy on its head and brings to life a fierce, darkly comic and epic female-driven revenge story, starring MIA WASIKOWSKA and DAMON HERRIMAN.

We are anticipating strong-demand for this screening, book now to avoid disappointment!
