'INSIDE'

A GRIPPING PRISON THRILLER STARRING GUY PEARCE.

On to the comps - and wrapping up today is our giveaway for 'Inside'. After being transferred from juvenile to adult prison, Mel Blight (Vincent Miller) is taken under the wing of both Mark Shepard (Cosmo Jarvis), Australia’s most despised criminal, and Warren Murfett (Guy Pearce), a soon-to-be-a-paroled inmate. As a paternal triangle grows between them, we see that even the worst of men have a little bit of good inside that will be their undoing. To win one of five double passes to see 'Inside' in cinemas, click here now - but be quick, as entries close tonight.

'EVERY LITTLE THING'

FROM THE SMALLEST ACTS EMERGE GRACE.

Kicking off today is our giveaway for 'Every Little Thing'. A film of joy and wonder, 'Every Little Thing' offers profound truths in a deceptively simple story. What does it mean to care for another, and what impact does this act have on us? Intending to these fragile yet resilient hummingbirds, Terry Masear finds a sense of healing from her own past. Her diminutive patients — brought into sharp focus through breathtaking, beautifully detailed photography — become memorable protagonists in their own right. The viewer becomes emotionally invested in Cactus, Jimmy, Wasabi, Alexa, and Mikhail, celebrating their small victories and lamenting their tiny tragedies. The compassion and empathy that Masear shows her Lilliputian charges serves as a lesson to us all — a reminder that in the smallest of acts, and in the tiniest of creatures, we might find grace.

'HARD TRUTHS'

A DARKLY HUMOROUS & POIGNANT EXPLORATION OF FAMILY DYNAMICS.

Also kicking off today is our giveaway for 'Hard Truths'. Legendary filmmaker Mike Leigh returns with a darkly humorous and poignant exploration of family dynamics. Marianne Jean-Baptiste reunites with Leigh as Pansy, a woman consumed by fear and anger, while her easy-going sister leads a very different life as a single mother. Through their contrasting personalities, the film delves into the complexities of family bonds, love, and the enduring ties that bind us despite years of conflict and hardship. Click here now to win one of five double passes to see 'Hard Truths' in cinemas.

'SPIT'

EVERYONE DESERVES A SEVENTH CHANCE.

Also brand new today is our giveaway for 'Spit'. After 20 years on the run overseas, small-time ex-criminal Johnny Spitieri (Spit) slips back into Australia on a false passport only to find himself locked up in an Immigration Detention Centre with a massive target on his back as old enemies come looking for him, determined to settle old scores. As he struggles to stay one step ahead, the resourceful Spit finds new friends in detention, teaching them his version of mateship, and what it means to be truly Australian. Click here now to win one of five double passes to see 'Spit' in cinemas.
