AACTA members and their guests are invited to an exclusive industry preview screening of John Raftopoulos’ debut feature film Take My Hand, starring Adam Demos (Sex/Life) and Radha Mitchell, followed by a Q&A with cast and crew to be announced.

Filmed across London and Northern NSW, the film follows Laura (Mitchell), a vibrant young Australian woman who forges a successful banking career in London and seemingly has the perfect marriage. However, her world is turned upside down when she is diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and her husband starts to show his true colours.When a tragic accident leaves Laura a widowed mother with three sons, she returns home to Australia and is reunited with Michael (Demos), a high school friend and a divorcee with one daughter, who has loved Laura since they were teenagers.With a newly merged family in the small country town they grew up in, the couple’s lifelong search for happiness, peace, and mutual love is finally realised.

This event is exclusive to AACTA Members. Please enter your member number in the promo code field to access tickets.
