A middle-aged lawyer (Andrew Rakowski) uses his commute from work to talk to his wife and his mother. Sometimes he gives his colleague (David Easteal) a lift home.
From this simple premise director David Easteal crafts his three-hour debut feature, set almost entirely in a car on the commute through Melbourne’s western suburbs. It offers a penetrating insight into an ordinary life where small details convey enormous meaning.
‘This extraordinarily mundane film – a combination of words I’m fairly certain I’ve never used before – is a tremendous achievement and, in a subtle way, an amazing work of art.’ – The Guardian
