Bitter & Twisted		Australian Premiere
		Writer, director, and actor Christopher Weekes, who financed Bitter & Twisted himself, remarkably captures the way a family can fold after an unexpected death. Bitter & Twisted was the suprise hit of Tribecca Film Festival in New York and is now the buzz of the Australian film industry. Scr / Dir: Christopher Weekes | Prod: Bridget Callow | EP: Michael Favelle | Cast: Noni Hazlehurst, Steve Rogers, Leenna Walshman, Matt Newton and Gary Sweet | 2008, 85 min
		“Bitter & Twisted is... astutely observed.” Screen International “Idiosyncratic color choices, brilliant production design and quirkily fatalistic framing of shots recall Jane Campion’s debut.” Variety “This is touching and probing, both universal and specifically Australian... A masterpiece.” indiewire.com
