Uncork’d Entertainment has announced the release of the crime-thriller West of Sunshine following its bravura bow at Venice where it received a standing ovation.
Jason Raftopoulos makes his feature debut with the story of a father who has less than a day to pay back a gambling debt while looking after his young son.
The film features powerful performances from Damian Hill (“The Leftovers”), Ty Perham, Arthur Angel (Red Dog), Kat Stewart (“Underbelly”), Eliza D’Souza (Predestination), and Kaarin Fairfax (“Picnic at Hanging Rock”).
“Separated from his family and caught in a cycle of gambling and debt, Jim has less than a day to repay a violent loan shark. His day is turned upside down when he must look after his young son. Jim’s relationship with his son is tested as his plans to pay back the loan fail. When his last desperate effort to repay the debt puts his son’s life at risk, he must make a choice between his past and a second chance at life.”
West of Sunshine opens in theaters on January 18th followed by its arrival on VOD on January 22, 2019, from Uncork’d Entertainment.
