Overview

NZIFF (New Zealand International Film Festival)'s Autumn events has also bagged themselves a tidy wee premiere- David Farrier's odd flick Tickled.

Farrier, the journo-turned-director, really found himself in hot water with this one. Stumbling across a facebook page outlining the sport of endurance tickling (yes, tickling) when searching for story leads, this was evidently a story he had to pursue. Little did he know the layers of intrigue, aggression and secrecy he would find, resulting in a controversial movie (and lawsuit!) that showed at this year's Sundance festival. It's built itself quite a left-field following. This screening has the unique feature of both being the premiere screening, and a Directors' talk with Farrier and Dylan Reeves (the other mischievous filmmaker in this lil venture) will take place after the film for all your tickle-related wonderings.
