Synopsis
1970s Australia: A 200-ton blue whale washes up on a local beach and it's the biggest thing that's ever happened in the lives of the local kids. Behind closed doors, the parents of this quiet suburban cul-de-sac celebrate in their own special way… It’s a time of boxed wine, bad hair, bad styles, bad choices, but good times. And like the rotting whale, it's all about to go spectacularly wrong.

None of the films on this week’s list look like they will have breakout success. It is nearly impossible to find a film coming out in limited release this week that is in a genre that tends to do well in limited release, has great reviews, and isn’t playing on VOD. Wild Rose matches those three criteria the closest, but it is Ladies in Black that I’m most interested in seeing.
