Forever Young is currently in production in the Colo Valley region of New South Wales and marks the first feature collaboration between co-writers and co-directors Ulysses Oliver and Josh Mullins. The absurdist comedy-horror follows Tom, a 36-year-old man who learns that his internal organs have aged far beyond his years and becomes drawn into a bizarre cult that promises its followers the chance to be reborn as six-year-old children. Blending dark comedy, horror and satire, the film explores themes of ageing, mortality, belonging and the desperate desire to escape responsibility.

Featuring a cast led by Travis Jeffery, Socratis Otto, Ayesha Madon and Susie Porter, Forever Young continues Breathless Films’ commitment to bold, original Australian storytelling. Shot in the Hawkesbury region with cinematography by Kate Cornish, the production brings together a team of emerging and established Australian creatives to tell a uniquely local story with universal themes. As Breathless Films expands its slate following the success of award-winning features including Birdeater and Lonesome, Forever Young represents another ambitious step in the company’s evolution.
