This week we discuss the films of acclaimed Australian filmmaker Cate Shortland.
The first is Somersault (2004), a coming-of-age drama starring Abbie Cornish and Sam Worthington. The film, set in the Australian ski resort of Jindabyne, is a beautifully shot, powerful insight into the life of an emotionally troubled young runaway and the men who she interacts with.
The second is Lore (2012), a drama set in the final days of WW2. A young girl, and Hitler youth member, must take her siblings on a long journey across Germany aided by a young Jewish man. The film is based on Rachel Seiffert's 2001 novel The Dark Room.
The final film is Berlin Syndrome (2017), a psychological horror/thriller set in the German capital. An Australian backpacker falls victim to an English teacher who imprisons her in his flat. The film is based on the novel of the same name by Melanie Joosten.
