The Palace Movie Club invites you to be among the first audiences in Australia to see One of the most talked-about films at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, which also awarded Caleb Landry Jones the best actor award, Nitram, at a First-Look Preview Screening on Friday, September 24.
From the Director of Snowtown & Macbeth, Justin Kurzel’s NITRAM masterfully depicts one of Australia’s darkest tragedies, yet does so with the utmost sensitivity towards those it affected. Despite its difficult subject matter, this film definitively marks Kurzel as one of Australia’s finest ever filmmakers.
“Kurzel has gone about this task with blazing moral integrity, seeking to explain the apparently inexplicable in human terms.”
– Daily Telegraph
“Australian director Justin Kurzel has made his most purely disturbing film since his debut Snowtown in 2011.”
– Guardian
Nitram (Caleb Landry-Jones) lives with his mother (Judy Davis) and father (Anthony LaPaglia) in suburban Australia in the Mid 1990s. He lives a life of isolation and frustration at never being able to fit in. That is until he unexpectedly finds a close friend in a reclusive heiress, Helen (Essie Davis). However when that friendship meets its tragic end, and Nitram’s loneliness and anger grow, he begins a slow descent into a nightmare that culminates in the most nihilistic and heinous of acts.
