Film Matinee: The Castle (1997)

Join us to watch this Australian cult classic with an introduction by SMSA member, Peter Rainey.

Starring Michael Caton, Anne Tenney, Stephen Curry, Anthony Simcoe, Sophie Lee and Wayne Hope as the Kerrigan Family, as well as Tiriel Mora, Robyn Nevin, Eric Bana, Costas Kilias and Charles ‘Bud’ Tingwell.

The Kerrigan family’s simple domestic bliss in suburban Melbourne is threatened when government authorities try to force them to vacate their home to expand the neighbouring airport. The family decide to fight for their beloved home, engaging an inexperienced lawyer acquaintance to defend their case, which eventually takes them all the way to the High Court.

This event will be held in person at our Henry Carmichael Theatre, Level 1, 280 Pitt Street Sydney.

Registration to attend this event is essential due to limited capacity (as per COVID-19 safety regulations).
