Poignant portrayal of urban homeless
20 February 2022
Some Happy Day provides a realistic portrayal of urban homelessness set in the Australian inner city suburb of St Kilda.

Against a backdrop of some of Australia's most popular tourist sites, the story of a homeless woman, Tina, is set against those around her. Some are seeking the best for her while others may not.

This is such an important story as it lays bare the reality of many homeless people who still have capacity, hopes and dreams - but for a variety of reasons can never break the cycle.

Some Happy Day succeeds in its realism through the perspective of the case worker, Frances, who must walk an incredibly sensitive tightrope.

A great movie that hopefully will make a real difference.
