Arlo

SHORT DRAMA

Nicholas Price and Wayne Tunks collaborated on a number of music-videos and an award winning web-series, filmed in and around the Sydney suburb of Blacktown. So when Blacktown City Council announced an initiative to fund local filmmakers they leapt at the chance to make a short film.

Wayne wrote the short drama Arlo, set entirely in a suburban house in Blacktown. Arlo is about a young boy’s freedom to express himself in the face of his grandmother’s narrow-minded views on gender. The script is a lovely story so we immediately got the band back together, bringing back crew from After Nightfall.

Arlo premiered at Blacktown Shorts in 2019.
