“We were the best for each other”...Roberto.
For over twenty years, Archibald Prize-winning artist Craig Ruddy and his partner Roberto Meza Mont filmed their life together to share with friends and family. They documented events big and small, from celebrations and travel to the inner workings of a significant artist, illustrating a vibrant, joyous life that was filled with love.
To tell their story, their friend, documentary-maker Molly Reynolds (My Name is Gulpilil), spent months immersed in Roberto’s footage and crafted her most intimate film to date. An extraordinary insight into a prolific artist and the relationship that inspired him, the film is a rich and spirited portrait of life, love, and loss that draws you into its open embrace.
The inaugural Darwin Pride Film Festival celebrates diverse stories on screen, with seven films screened over six nights at the Deckchair Cinema. Come down early for pre-film entertainment and stay back after the films to hear from special guests. A big thank you to Top End Pride and the Darwin Pride Festival for their fantastic support.
