Program Note
One of Australia’s most innovative and daring filmmakers, Kriv Stenders returns with this film about a man’s harrowing, struggle with a choice between domestic reconciliation and permanent destruction. Co-conceived with lead actor Richard Green, Boxing Day revolves around Chris, an ex-con making a desperate and fragile attempt to repair relations with his estranged family over lunch. Another con shows up just before his family is due to arrive demanding to stash some drugs in Chris’ home ? an idea Chris rejects. Before he leaves, Owen levels a devastating accusation about a member of Chris’ family that plunges him into a personal dilemma inexorably headed toward an emotional explosion. Shot to give the impression of unfolding in real time and in one long take, Stenders’ digital photography creates a visceral space charged with fear and marked by verite veracity.
