Alvin's Harmonious World of Opposites premiered at Perth's Revelation Film Festival last year before going on to screen at the Sydney Underground Film Festival..
The first film from Australian filmmaker Platon Theodoris, it made its Stateside debut in January at Park City's Slamdance Festival.
"I was worried that the humour wouldn't translate [in America]", the director said, "but they loved it"..
Theodoris was particularly nervous after a screening in Jakarta had gone down like a lead balloon.
"It's an informal Indonesian-Australian co-production, because part of the film was shot in Indonesia and one of the main actors is Indonesian, so we'd screened it at an arthouse cinema called Kino Forum in Jakarta, and it was unfortunate because even though we had really good subtitles, it didn't quite translate".
The film will screen later this month at Acmi, and at Sydney's Golden Age Cinema and Parramatta's Riverside Theatre.in April.
