    Description:

    Modern day drama, based in Sydney. Approximately 90mins.  Film comments on the perception gap between the romantic notions of 'family' and reality, as well as societies attitudes towards adoption. Quite relevant given current events surrounding the 'forced adoptions' of the 60's and 70's, and the possible technological tools that social networks could employ.

    When Jia [Chun Kee Claudia Teh] loses both her job and home in the one day, nothing as a new Citizen is what she expected.

Jia’s triad ex, Kong [Chris Pang], pursues her to get her back, to save face, and searches Melbourne for her - maybe out of genuine love.

    Description:

    “10/10 … An entire film that’s filled with human drama and cinema magic... that’s why Birthday’s the best movie of year. From a pitch perfect performance from Natalie Eleftheriadis … her acting is something to behold … and outstanding direction from James Harkness, this is what people should see when questioning the quality of Australian films and, well, dramas in general... One of the best Australian movies ever made.”  -  Planet Urban [Chris Elena], Best and Worst Movies of 2011. "Birthday" began its life as a small independent stage play which premiered in 2007 and toured Melbourne and Adelaide Australia over four weeks and has been a blessed project; from it’s conception, to its success on stage, to its swift transition to film, thanks in large part to the timely themes of loss of intimacy, social and economic breakdown and of course… the search for love and meaning. Set against the paradoxical landscape of a brothel, these themes marry beautifully with ‘career-best’ performances from some of Australia’s highest profile and international renowned actors embodying exquisitely written and crafted characters. It is a prayer for the extraordinary and the un-extraordinary, a reminder that love is a birthright not a privilege, and that even the smallest of birthday wishes can come true. Our impressive lead cast includes AFI nominee Kestie Morassi (Wolf Creek, Satisfaction); AFI nominee Richard Wilson (The Proposition, The Loved Ones); Travis McMahon (I Love You Too, Cactus); legend of Australian film and television Chantal Contouri (General Hospital, Thirst, Metalskin); Inside Film nominee Ra Chapman (Face To Face, Knowing); and Natalie Eleftheriadis, who received much critical acclaim when playing in the same leading role in the highly successful stage play and took out the prestigious 'Best Actor' award at the 2010 Cannes Independent Film Festival. BIRTHDAY also features stunning cinematography from “Oranges and Sunshine” D.O.P Denson Baker ACS (The Black Balloon, Waiting City), Production Design by the acclaimed Beverley Freeman (Ten Canoes, Dr Plonk) and a haunting original score by Ollie Olsen (Head On, Dogs In Space). BIRTHDAY is writer/director J.Harkness’ second Australian Feature to date, the first of which ‘Shot Of Love’ was selected for The Cannes Film Festival, Critics Week in 2004.
