Description
New Zealand, 1981. While the rest of the country deals with the politics around a rugby tournament, 17-year-old Josh (Julian Dennison, Hunt for the Wilderpeople, Deadpool 2) is searching for his place in his family, his community, the world and, of course, the drama club. Dennison delivers a charismatic performance in this story about a young student struggling for New Zealand’s national identity, with honorable mentions for Minnie Driver (Good Will Hunting, Tarzan) and Rhys Darby (Our Flag Means Death).
