After an eviction, a son and his pregnant wife refuse to leave his parents’ home in this biting satire about intergenerational wealth. A breakthrough Aussie dark comedy debut.

Newly evicted and jobless, 30-something Cory (Travis Jeffery) and his heavily pregnant wife, Jasmine (Maria Angelico), have no choice but to move into his childhood home – but just until they get back on their feet, of course. But this temporary measure slowly becomes a parasitic imposition on Cory’s baby-boomer parents (Michael Hurst and Linda Cropper), with absurd and ludicrous consequences. Cory is determined to prove that he can earn his stripes as “man of the house” – even if that house isn’t his.

Sharp and farcical, Western Australian director Zoe Pepper’s transition from stage to screen is a twisted take on privilege, the housing crisis, and a disillusioned generation that hits very close-to-home indeed.

Screening at Luna Leederville and Luna on SX from May 21.
