The pen is as mighty as the punching bag when it comes to processing trauma. Winner of the 2024 Melbourne International Film Festival Audience Award, LEFT WRITE HOOK follows eight survivors of abuse through a radical recovery program in this brave and candid look at how the written word and the fight in the ring can both serve as outlets for personal growth and empowerment. The film offers audiences a profound understanding of what it means to be a victim-survivor in Australia today and the strength that can come from connection and healing.
