About

Feature film Savage follows the making of a gang leader as it examines three periods in his life, over a 30 year span. Olly Presling, first-time actor James Matamua and Australian Jake Ryan (TV series Wolf Creek) each play Danny — in his childhood, teenage and adult years respectively. Through a shifting timeline, Savage explores how Danny’s childhood in an abusive boy's home helps shape him into a ruthless gang member, alongside lifelong friend Moses (John Tui). Savage marks the feature debut of writer/director Sam Kelly (award-winning short Lambs), who is supported by producer Vicky Pope.
