Ebony Society
Short Film (Full Length) – 2010
The award-winning directing debut of actor Tammy Davis (better known as Munter on Outrageous Fortune) is a South Auckland-set Christmas tale. Young Vinnie (Darcey-Ray Flavell-Hudson, of Ghost Chips fame) and Jonah (James Ru) are bored on the mean streets — tagging, BMX-ing — when Jonah pressures Vinnie to join him in breaking and entering a house. When they find more than Christmas presents inside, it tests mateship, moral codes and festive spirit. Crowned Best Film at Australian festival Flickerfest, Ebony Society was selected for the Berlin and Sundance film festivals.
