Stork

About This Movie

Stork, directed by Tim Burstall, offers a quirky glimpse into the life of a young man caught in the throes of youthful disillusionment. The protagonist, a lanky and awkward character, navigates the absurdities of 1970s Melbourne with a mix of naive idealism and charming ineptitude. The pacing can feel a bit meandering, mirroring the protagonist's own aimlessness. There's a rawness in its practical effects and a distinct sense of place that encapsulates the era. The humor is dry, often laced with a sense of existential mischief, as Stork fumbles through interviews and relationships. It's an interesting take on rebellion and self-discovery, showcasing a side of Australian cinema that’s both light-hearted and oddly poignant.
