The Kerrigan family are among the most iconic characters in Australian cinema. With his penchant for a bargain, love of simple serenity and devotion to his family, father Darryl (Michael Caton) is a true Aussie battler determined to save his beloved home from airport redevelopment – and willing to take the fight all the way to the top.
Directed by Rob Sitch (Frontline, Utopia), The Castle is a quintessentially Australian underdog story: eminently quotable, deeply satirical and full of heart and humour.
‘…remains absolutely un-budgeable from its perch as the most widely adored (and quoted) Australian film of all time’ – Herald Sun
Presented on 35mm film prints from the NFSA collection.
