MOVIE | Forgive Us All announces Australian release – Set in a post-apocalyptic world where a virus has transformed humans into violently deranged cannibals, FORGIVE US ALL follows Rory, a bereaved mother who has lost everything and takes refuge in an isolated mountain cabin, until a desperate wounded stranger arrives with a story of hope.
Shot entirely on location in Queenstown, New Zealand, FORGIVE US ALL features an all-star Australian cast led by Lily Sullivan (Evil Dead Rise, Monolith, Picnic At Hanging Rock) alongside Callan Mulvey (The Gray Man, Avengers End Game, Zero Dark Thirty) and Richard Roxburgh (Elvis, Prosper, Eden). Supported by New Zealand actors Dean O’Gorman (After the Party, The Hobbit trilogy), Bree Peters (Friends Like Her, The Dead Lands), Lawrence Makoare (The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Die Another Day) and Lance Giles in his debut feature role.
FORGIVE US ALL will release in cinemas throughout Australia from Thursday 1 May. The full trailer is available on the Rialto YouTube channel
The film marks the directorial debut of Writer and Director Jordana Stott who says “I set out to create a western/horror that challenges moral complexities of survival and has a strong female redemption narrative at its core. Ultimately, FORGIVE US ALL serves as a testament to the enduring spirit of motherhood, the painful search for redemption and the hope that can emerge from the darkest of circumstances.”
Produced by Lance Giles for Stiles Pictures and Jared Connon for Five Films, FORGIVE US ALL is an independently financed feature film. Key crew include award-winning Director of Photography Peter McCaffrey (M3gan, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy), Composer Brandon Roberts (A Quiet Place I and II, Logan, The Woman in Black) and Academy Award-nominated editor Michael Horton (Once Were Warriors, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers).
