Separated from his family and caught in a cycle of gambling and debt, Jim (Damian Hill) has less than a day to repay a violent loan shark. His day is turned upside down when he must look after his young son, Alex (Ty Perham). Jim's relationship with his son is tested as his plans to pay back the loan shark fail. When his last desperate effort to repay the debt puts his son's life at risk, he must make a choice between his past and a second chance at life. Nominated for Best Film and Best Director at the **Venice Film Festival**. Nominated for Best Indie Film and Best Lead Actor at the **Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts Awards**. "*Fatherhood gets an incisive examination in "West of Sunshine," the short, sharp and rewarding feature debut of Australian writer-director Jason Raftopoulos.*" - Richard Kuipers, ***Variety***
