Montserrat (2026)
James Cunningham's short film MONTSERRAT offers a poignant and introspective portrait of the Australian immigrant experience, encapsulated through the daily life of a solitary tradesman. Featuring a delicate performance by actor and model Wilson Bazurto, the film reveals the quiet existence of Montserrat, a young man whose life is marked by routine and loneliness. Wearing his ubiquitous yellow or orange hi-vis tradesman's uniforms like a shell of his identity, Montserrat's days blend into one another as he navigates mundane tasks in his mostly empty house. The film's observational cinematography captures a rare glimpse into the life of a man overlooked by society.
