ABOUT 'LA LA FALLS'
A micro budget labour of love, filmed in under a week with a predominantly raw, first time cast, 'La La Falls' is a truly one-of-a kind Aussie film that offers plenty of laughs alongside a powerful emotional punch. At its core, it's a deeply humanistic, offbeat dark comedy that tackles profound themes that affect us all, including; identity, resilience, isolation, community, connection, love, loss, fear and redemption. Visually and narratively, the film is anchored by the Australian bush, which evolves from a quiet sanctuary into a vibrant, reactive force that shapes the characters' journey.
