As the feature directorial debut of Mark Leonard Winter, The Rooster explores what it feels like to be caught in the frightening, surreal, quiet fog of depression, whilst also finding the humour and absurdity in those feelings. Featuring Phoenix Raei (Clickbait, Stateless) and Hugo Weaving (Love Me, Lord Of The Rings).

When the body of his oldest friend is found buried in a shallow grave, Dan, a small-town cop, seeks answers from a volatile Hermit who may have been the last person to see his friend alive.

Hear from cast & crew about how they brought this emotional script to life.
