We’re proud to help share the trailer for Tim Barretto’s brilliant Perth-based feature film Bassendream.
After sold out screenings for its world premiere at Perth’s Revelation International Film Festival, Bassendream has gone on to receive encore event screenings alongside an upcoming Perth screening run at iconic cinema houses Luna Leederville, Luna on SX, and The Backlot Perth.

Check out the synopsis trailer, character posters, and screening details below:
It’s the last day of the summer school holidays in 1990’s Australia. Over 24 hours, a kaleidoscopic chronicle of an ordinary suburb unfolds. Captured on 16mm film with a unique tone and freewheeling rhythm, ‘BASSENDREAM’ revisits the tender interactions, eccentric escapades and extreme independence we remember growing up when the backyards were bigger and home was just a place to sleep. A raw, refreshing and playful look at the growing pains of youth before the internet had all the so-called answers.
