Another View 2005 / Into the Night / Australia 2002
A lonely and vulnerable young man finds himself on the street. There he meets a lonely rich man. He is used to playing his own exhausting and perhaps none-too-honest games. How will their lives cross during the course of a night?
A lonely and vulnerable young man finds himself on the street. He’s cautious but his desire for money gets him into trouble when he meets a lonely, very wealthy man. The latter is used to playing his own exhausting and, perhaps, none-too-honest games. During the course of one night their lives unexpectedly cross - and at the outset neither of them can predict what will happen. Their roles at first seem to be clearly divided. But as time goes on it becomes more and more obvious that the borders between seducer and seduced, mystifier and mystified, winner and loser are being erased.... This 2002 short film, shot from a script by Cath Moore, brought its director Tony Krawitz a Gold Hugo at the Chicago IFF, the Australian Film Institute Award for Best Short Film Screenplay and Best Film at the St. Tropez IFF.

Tony Krawitz (b. 1967, Australia) shot his first short film, Zero (1997), while studying at Sydney’s University of Technology. An interest in film led him to study directing at the Australian Film, Television and Radio School (AFTRS); there he did well with other short films: Customs (2001), Together in the Middle of Nowhere (2001) and Into the Night (2002). His next short film, Unit 52 (2002), drew the attention of both audiences and critics, receiving praise at Cannes. In 2001 he was one of Ray Lawrence’s assistants on the psychological drama Lantana. He co-directed the minute-long installation film Paraparaparadise (2001) for the Australian Centre of the Moving Image in Melbourne. After graduation he began making music videos and commercials, and in 2004 he shot his directorial debut, Jewboy, based on his own script.
