Between the depressing realities of Brexit and the Australian election, there is not a single Australian film in the top twenty to cheer us up.

We have nothing but Sherpa and Chasing Asylum, documentaries with a fine anger about the sins of the world. Sherpa is now at $1,256,508 in thirteen weeks, now down ten screens to three and at $1200/screen. A fine achievement, now at the end of its run.
