Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Born from the infamous 1980 Azaria Chamberlain case where 'a dingo ate my baby' became global punchline, this film weaponizes that trauma into deliberate provocation.
Director Haydn Keenan made this as pure Australian New Wave excess—part of a brief era where Oz cinema embraced maximalist weirdness before government funding collapsed.
