In 2016, Australian filmmaker Emma Sullivan began documenting the life and work of Danish inventor Peter Madsen. Madsen was famous for building a home-made, crowd-funded submarine and had attracted a band of talented students to his workshop in Copenhagen, who were captivated by his energy, charisma and ambitions.

A year into filming, Madsen took Swedish journalist, Kim Wall, on a trip in his submarine, and returned to shore alone, triggering a murder investigation and a global media frenzy. As horrifying details emerge, Sullivan tracks the impact of the crime on Madsen’s supporters as they slowly grasp the true nature of the man they called a friend and mentor.

Tickets: A limited number of complimentary tickets will be made available to registered AIDC 2023 delegates. If not at capacity, standby tickets may be avilable 30 mins prior to screening.
Tickets are also available to purchase through ACMI.
