The Longest Weekend

Save more with a Flexipass
A true indie from Sydney’s Inner West in which three siblings reunite, feud and reunite. The impressive ensemble cast includes screen veterans Tammy MacIntosh and John Batchelor.
Easter long weekend, and while Mum (MacIntosh) is away, three disconnected siblings reluctantly return to their childhood home: there is Lou (Mia Artemis, Pieces of Her), who has been fired and evicted; Avery (Hiraani Clapin), who found her husband cheating, and Rio (Adam Golledge), who well… he never left home. Tensions boil over when their estranged father (Batchelor) reaches out in attempt to rekindle a connection, much to the dismay of everyone but Rio. Secrets reveal themselves, drawing the inharmonious trio closer, and together they must decide if the past is best left behind them. A queer-positive debut from emerging filmmaker duo Molly Haddon and Jorrden Daley.
