Cinema Australia's video: Under Streetlights Trailer

This powerful story inspired by true events chronicles the friendship between two young musicians who rise from obscurity to the cusp of stardom. A gritty, highly authentic tale of an unlikely bond that develops amongst the red dust and burning sun of Central Australia, Under Streetlights revolves around grief-stricken singer/songwriter Ella (gifted newcomer Madison Hull), who finds a surprising musical ally in Izak (Jacob Harvey), an indigenous hip-hop artist and home studio producer with a style and passion all of his own. Directed by visionary filmmaker, Danielle Loy, Under Streetlights weaves a multilayered tapestry of evolving relationships, shared grief and a constant beacon of hope. Through their shared love of music, Izak (Jacob Harvey) and Ella (Madison Hull) overcome adversity, both struggling with the shadows of alcoholic fathers and losing family members, while bearing the weight of diverse cultural expectations.  Under Streetlights will release nationally on December 12, with a soundtrack for the film featuring the film’s stars and other local musicians, produced by Cain Gilmour scheduled for release on streaming platforms to coincide with the film’s roll out across Australia. Advance screenings of the film will take place at Melbourne’s Cinema Nova and Classic Cinemas, Angelika Film Centre Brisbane, Perth’s Luna Leederville and Sydney’s Ritz Cinema, with a red carpet premiere on December 12 at Sydney’s Hayden Orpheum, most accompanied by musical performances and Q&As.
