Enter the world of Fatty Finn, played by six-year-old Robin ‘Pop’ Ordell, as he faces off against his rival Bruiser with his pet goat Hector in a billy-cart race.
This adorable silent film was mostly shot on the working-class streets of Sydney in 1927. Drawn from the NFSA’s collection, it was the first major children’s feature film produced in Australia.
‘The easygoing characters and likeable story had wide appeal to all ages, and with a charm that continues to entertain to this day.’ – John Brady for the NFSA
This screening will be accompanied by a live performance of original music by CJ Shaw and the All Sorts.
