Description
OFFICIAL SELECTION: Melbourne International Film Festival, 2022
From visionary director Platon Theodoris, THE LONELY SPIRITS VARIETY HOUR is based on the award-winning play by Nitin Vengurlekar, who stars as Neville Umbrellaman, the verbose host of an oddball late-night radio show, ‘The Lonely Spirits Variety Hour’, spouting existential musings and spinning public domain hits into the wee hours. But when Neville is rushed to hospital, a collection of bizarre, often half-baked variety acts, as well as Neville’s crush Sabrina (Sabrina Chan D’Angelo), have to jump in to cover… but is this all what it seems?
Funny, touching, poignant and charmingly odd, THE LONELY SPIRITS VARIETY HOUR is a must-watch if you’re looking for something different that’s also incredibly sweet, and to discover one of Australia’s most bold and distinctive new directors. Rent or buy it today!
