The Longest Weekend (2022)
love an Aussie indie film about family!
Fun and very grounded film about an australian family, small scale but does characters quite well i thought!
Feels very 2022 in terms of being modern in how it looks at things like sexuality and monogamy so if you like those kinds of issues this is a good fit for you.. also nice urban view of sydney
i also liked the sibling relationships and thought there were lots of funny small moments between the sisters especially (although i think these siblings hugged a lot more than i do with mine haha maybe that's just me).
This movie made me want to watch more australian movies because it feels very true to the country i have grown up in.
Year Of (2023)
if you want a realistic refreshing show about teenagers
To me this is like an aussie heartstopper but maybe less wholesome haha (although it is still suprisingly wholesome for quite an edgy show)
you basically follow a group of teenager kids before and after an event (i won't say what because spoiler's!!) and see them grow and just basically being normal teens, which i think is so rare in tv shows these days when everything's always trying to be so dramatic. These are very unique character's and felt to me like they were real people. (My favorite was Gus haha iykyk)
As someone who know's what its like to sometimes not to know who you are or trying figure it out when it feels like the world is burning around you, this is a show that touches on those kinds of themes in a fresh and interesting way.
However i will say some of the parent story line's were maybe less interesting as i wanted to spend more time with the teens, but maybe that's just me.
