i love melbourne and it's a city that's been voted you know livable and all those things but there is an undercurrent and there's a hardness about that and there's a price to that that is really kind of talked about in the anchors of the plight of your protagonist with the whole of australia nickel we didn't melbourne because there was a bank bailout of one hundred twenty billion dollars in australia to your banks in twenty zero eight which presumably is the the area which you were breathing yeah i mean when i when i wrote the screenplay i was i was very conscious about creating kind of the three live the tease of it so the con of the overarching structural. the structural oppression which is kind of like the city and and capitalism in a sense the maser level which is kind of the organizational he's gambling and he's now you know he's kind of work life and then the interpersonal khana of problems that he has between himself and his son and he's on problems that he has with his father. it's a tough city to live in it's a big city and it's not as glamorous and it's not as con of you kno

idealized as what you might think it is you know there's a lot of people on how to live in melbourne and there's a lot of people how to live in the big cities in australia because it's a process place to live and that has direct ramifications this need for consumption this need for con a continual growth has. mental health and kind of other social effects and i don't want to push that down anyone's throat but that's part of the overarching con of idea of the film it's part of the subtext of when just very briefly without giving away the ending we have to be necessarily vague about it would you say in some senses the guy is all redeemed by the end of the yeah it's hopeful it's hopeful and well he he has learnt something he has learnt something that hopefully will change the course of his life and you know the lesson that he learned is the story of the film and so yeah i would say that story jason rafter pulis thank you and that's it for the show will be back on saturday for a full show special with legendary journalist and filmmaker john pilger joel then you can be judged by social me

and of after this see you became the archbishop of melbourne he was the archbishop a while and then he was asked to come to the vatican and again and but it can be climbed the ladder very fast to do what can you tell us about the allegations the nature of the allegations against cardinal pell and when they first surfaced where we're talking about sexual abuse abuse of course that began in the mid seventy's of the last century when he was a ballarat as a priest and that continued and that's what the court says and it continued in melbourne and he was an arch witch of sexual abuse to two boys and he always denies wrongdoing of course but but the court is pretty sure the council is pretty sure that he is guilty. what's the reaction been the australian public to this case. the people in australia followed were very closely i doubt very much interested in what's going on at the courthouse in melbourne and today there were clapping hands actually they were giving hands when it became clear that you will have to stand court people and australia very much want that the catholic church clear
