HEART OF THE MAN
Australia
Aspiring boxer Chris Wundurra (Parker Little) lives under the shadow of his father, Sammy Wundurra (David Cook), a towering one-time champ in the ring known by his moniker of Wonder-Man. Haunted by a family tragedy, Sammy pushes Chris to take a tilt at a national boxing championship, and while the young man is desperate to impress his fearsome father, he is destined to walk another road…one which doesn’t involve pain and violence.
Heart of the Man is an auspicious debut from First Nations filmmaker David Cook, featuring a star-making turn from Parker Little.
