'Arthur Gbeme has moved back into his Western Sydney childhood home. As he tells it, he has “put his life on hold” to care for his mum, Maggie, but the truth is, there isn’t much to put on hold. A former nurse, Maggie used to be a firebrand – a renegade. But since the death of her husband, Maggie has been… a little off. A bold re-imagining of the Australian classic, ‘Mother & Son’ is a show about ageing, migrant upbringing, changing family roles, and caring for someone you love even when they’re driving you up the wall. It’s an unapologetically hilarious comedy about a “helpless old woman” who runs rings around her adult son.'

'Twelve-year-old identical twins Dru and Kal are just like any other Australian boys living in Sydney in their first year of high school. Their parents are second generation Indian Australians and have embraced everything the country has to offer. But after a government-sponsored dental check-up, in which Kal is seen twice so that his twin, who has a crippling fear of dentists, can avoid another fainting episode, the Australian dream starts to unravel. The boys discover that a mysterious electronic device has been inserted into Kal twice, while Dru remains device-free and, therefore, undetectable. For what sinister ends is a democratic government secretly tracking and manipulating Australia’s youth?'
