MELBOURNE PREMIERE

Nate (Metro Sexual star Riley Nottingham) is a proud pansexual man who used to be really tight with his big brother Ged (Wellmania’s Johnny Carr), but something bad went down and the siblings haven’t spoken in years. Summoned to suburban Melbourne to celebrate their mum's birthday, she promptly dies overnight and they’re forced to work things out while on a road trip back to the remote northern NSW town where they grew up, so they can scatter her ashes. Good job Nate’s boyfriend Blake (Declan Clifford, who you might have spotted in the stage adaptation of Holding the Man) is a funeral director who can lend them a hearse. Written and directed by Metro Sexual co-creator Henry Boffin, it’s a trip!

Screening followed by Q&A with director Henry Boffin and producer/star Riley Nottingham.

Transport

Accessibility

ACMI is located at Fed Square, Melbourne, on Flinders St between Swanston St and Russell St.
ACMI has two entrances: one on Flinders Street (look for the revolving door), and one at the top end of the Fed Square plaza.

ACMI has lifts at every level of the building.

Public Transport
Most of Melbourne’s trains and trams will take you to ACMI.
Our location at Fed Square sits opposite Flinders Street Station within Melbourne’s Free Tram Zone.

Bicycles
If you plan to cycle to ACMI, you can lock your bike to purpose-built bicycle racks installed around the perimeter of Fed Square, but you’ll need to bring your own lock. You can’t bring your bike into ACMI itself.

Parking
Paid parking is available at the Fed Square carpark, located on the Russell Street Extension or via the second entrance off Batman Ave. It's a 2 minute (200m) walk from Fed Square car park to ACMI.
There is also a Wilson Parking at 172/192 Flinders St, directly opposite our Flinders Street entrance.

Lifts
Level 1 – Cinemas access
There are two lifts located on Level 1. As you enter from Fed Square, one is around the corner on your right, as you pass the Tickets and Information Desk and approach the stairs. If you make a hard right towards the cafe and bar and the Level 1 toilets, you will see the lift. This is the best lift option to reach the Cinemas level (Level 2).

Wheelchairs
If you use a wheelchair you can access all our spaces.
If you need to borrow a wheelchair for use inside the museum, present your ID at one of our Tickets and Information Desks on arrival and we’ll organise one for you free of charge.

Guide dogs
Guide Dogs and registered assistance animals are welcome throughout ACMI. But only registered animals.

Hearing loops
Free hearing devices are available for use in the ACMI Cinemas and Studios and can be borrowed on presentation of ID. Visit the Tickets and Information Desks on Level 1 or Ground Floor to arrange.
The devices come with headphones or connect with hearing aids via a neck loop. You can choose what you prefer.

Toilet Facilities
Toilets are located on Ground Floor and Level 1. We have wheelchair accessible toilets and gender neutral toilets on both levels.
Baby change facilities are available at the Flinders St (Ground Floor) and Fed Square (Level 1) entrances near the toilets.
