Logline
While searching for a nightclub owner’s daughter, a good-hearted thug finds himself the star of a fatal reality show and unravels the sinister plans of the media mogul behind it all.
He thought he was cashing out, but he’s only just buying in.
Positioning
Old Mate is Snatch x Fight Club, an exploration of meaning, masculinity, and mental health within a wild ride of Aussie wit, striking visuals, sexy cars, and a supercharged soundtrack.
Theme
Something worth dying for is something worth living for.
“A strong why can survive any how.” - Friedrich Nietzsche
Innovative Production
To speed up production, every shot of Old Mate is storyboarded and edited into a pre-visualised cut. The soundtrack is completed, sound design recorded, and the theme song by Drapht has been licensed in perpetuity. Old Mate was strategically written to reduce logistical complexity without compromising quality. 1 set contains 7 locations and over half the scenes.
