Movie- THE CORRESPONDENT (7.00pm)


June 1, 2025

Based on the incredible true story of Australian war correspondent Peter Greste’s arrest and imprisonment in Egypt in 2013, THE CORRESPONDENT is a gripping thriller.

"Roxburgh brings a believable weariness to Greste’s rising tension, however well managed with the painted face of professionalism. But there’s a hint of reckless bravado there." - 3.5/5 Stars  Stephen A Russell, Screen Hub

While covering the news desk in Cairo for a colleague over the Christmas holidays, Australian journalist Peter Greste is arrested and accused of terrorism. He has become a pawn in the middle of a deadly game full of corrupt officials and ancient rivalries. Now the subject of his own worldwide news story, with only his wits and unlikely allies keeping him alive, Greste’s very survival means staring down a brutal regime. THE CORRESPONDENT is a gripping thriller and a compelling true story about the relentless defence of the truth and triumph of the human spirit. Starring Richard Roxburgh as Peter Greste and directed by Kriv Stenders (Red Dog).
