The NFSA's Kodak/Atlab Cinema Collection: Sunday Too Far Away

This instalment of the Kodak/Atlab Cinema Collection essays, by Adrian Danks, examines Sunday Too Far Away (Ken Hannam, 1975). The film is undoubtedly one of the key works in Australian film history. It is a richly resonant film the draws on the dominant traditions and forms of Australia's piecemeal pre-1975 cinema and the preoccupation with history, masculinity and ideas of national identity that mark the full flourishing of the so-called feature film 'revival'.
