Australian Independent Film
What makes them different, makes them a team.
Pick up the new IndiePix The Merger DVD, so you can have a good time at your next family movie night.
This is a feel good Australian movie, but there are definitely good messages along with the laughs.
The film is set in an economically challenged rural community in Australia and features a diverse cast of characters.
The people in the small town are struggling to adapt to the changing world, but their local “footy” team brings them new hope and a new sense of community.
Footy is a common term for Australian football, which is their own unique sport. It has elements of American football, rugby and some other sports mixed in.
Once again, I am reminded of how similar we all are inside, despite our outward differences. And humor is a wonderful way to deal with tough issues.
Adults and kids will enjoy the film. It isn’t rated, but is what I consider to be family friendly.
I would have been fine with my boys watching it, when they were younger.
Adults can enjoy watching it with or without kids.
The trailer will give you a good feel for the film.
