THE FACELESS MAN - Dir James Di Martino - 1:40:00 - AUS
Starring - Sophie Thurling, Roger Ward, Andy McPhee, Tom Vogel, Peter D Flaherty and Albert Goikhman 

A wild Opening Night for MUFF 20.
James Di Martino has made the almost PERFECT MUFF movie, a wild genre comedy explosion that will set your eye balls reeling. 

What’s it about? Three years after Emily has recovered from cancer, she struggles to adjust back to everyday life. Living in fear of redeveloping her disease, a manifestation haunts her from the depths of her subconscious in the form of a faceless creature; it’s her fear incarnate. Or is it?

Emily’s best friend Nina organises a weekend endeavour with some friends to a holiday house secluded in an outback town. The Holiday house rests in the town of “OrangeLodge” known far and wide as a good town with good people. However they have a strong no drug policy and will go to extreme lengths to prevent any drugs from entering this town. The group experience first hand the unsettling and hostile nature the people of this rural town like to treat city folk.

Suffice to say all hell breaks loose! - and the film features industry luminaries like Roger Ward, Andy McPhee and Albert Goikhman in great supporting roles. It’s must see at MUFF 20 and get’s our festival off to a flying start.
