Head South was named by the British Film Institute as one of the great New Zealand films.

Starring Ed Oxenbould, Marton Csokas and featuring Stella Bennett (Benee) in her acting debut Head South is showing at Cinema Nova, Carlton from Thursday, April 3.

Set in Otautahi (Christchurch) 1979 – Angus, alone for a fortnight with his world-weary father, is drawn into the underground post-punk music scene. Desperate to fit in with this magnetic but fickle subculture, Angus distances himself from his true friends and fabricates his musical abilities.

Caught out by his own deceit, he must become the musician he pretended to be. With the support of his friends, especially the talented Kirsten, Angus navigates self-doubt, derision, harmful behaviour and a family tragedy to take the stage for the first time.
