"A conservative, middle-aged couple try to save a floundering marriage with a trip to a new-age relationship retreat awash in sexual liberation and — on at least one day of the week — extreme nudity. They decide to give their failing marriage one last shot before calling it quits.

Arriving in an idyllic sanctuary nestled in the mountains, they uncomfortably enter a world of laughter workshops, tantric dance, sexual liberation and emotional animals,
helmed by the charismatic guru Bjorg Rassmussen. When new temptations start to take hold, the couple are pushed to the brink forcing them to look within to find what they really want. But will they bare all to get it?

A delightfully bonkers comedy set on a fictitious island (one that, funnily enough, bares an uncanny resemblance to various parts of New Zealand’s South Island), and shot entirely in a made-up language, this is a universal story of love and miscommunication, misinterpretation and reconnection, reminding us that love laid bare, needs no translation."

'50 years of First Nations activism in Australia through the lens of contemporary Australian Aboriginal artist Richard Bell.

'First Nations artist Richard Bell proclaims himself to be an ‘activist masquerading as an artist.’ His confrontational work and attitudes have stirred the Australian art world while being lauded internationally, taking him from a childhood in a rural Queensland shack to the lofty halls of the Tate Modern. Schooled in the rough and tumble politics of Redfern and the Canberra Tent Embassy, his work challenges the institutions of colonisation in Australia and asserts the rights of First Nations people around the world. Through this collaboration with Emory Douglas, a Black Panther known as the ‘Revolutionary Artist’ Bell’s work links the fight for rights in Australia and the U.S. He has profoundly challenged the Australian art world with his scorching manifesto, Bell’s Theorem, that labelled the Aboriginal Art industry as ‘a white thing’ defined by colonial power structures that profit most from it. At a time when Australia is contemplating voice, truth and treaty, Bell’s ideas cannot be ignored.'
