Boat Club Cinemas is delighted to present KANGAROO, a touching and uplifting family comedy.
The film follows ex-TV personality Chris Masterman, who finds himself stranded in a small Outback town just outside Alice Springs. There, he meets 12-year-old Indigenous girl Charlie, and together they form an unlikely friendship. Their journey leads them to rescuing and caring for orphaned joeys—a heart-warming mission that changes both of their lives.
Inspired by a true story and beautifully “Filmed on Country”, this film showcases the breathtaking Outback landscape while celebrating community and connection.
We’re especially proud to share that one of the cast members is Hervey Bay’s own Wayne Blair, whose involvement has been warmly applauded by StudioCanal as well as the wider ensemble.
KANGAROO is the perfect feel-good movie for all generations—grandparents, parents, and kids alike. Come and enjoy it with your family these school holidays.
