Making a movie about the Port Arthur massacre

30 Sep 2021 | 60 mins

Description

When NITRAM, a newly released film about the perpetrator of the Port Arthur massacre, was announced there was swift backlash from politicians and film critics who argued that the story was too painful and traumatic to tell. 




On today’s episode of The Culture we dissect the film, and explore the bigger questions it raises about how to tell stories about trauma and violence.




Plus, we speak to the director of the film, Justin Kurzel and the film’s writer, Shaun Grant.






Guest: Justin Kurzel, director of Nitram; Shaun Grant, writer of Nitram; Mahmood Fazal, writer, journalist and contributor The Saturday Paper and The Monthly.
