STUDIOCANAL and Dendy Powerhouse Outdoor Cinema is excited to announce that tickets are now on sale for the highly anticipated family film Runt, set to release in Queensland on September 12 and across Australia on September 19. This delightful film, based on the award- winning bestselling novel of the same name, will captivate audiences with its charming story of friendship, determination, and a loveable dog named Runt.
Runt has already captured the hearts of readers, sweeping major Australian literary awards including the Children’s Book Council of Australia’s Book of the Year for Young Readers, and Book of the Year for Younger Children at the Australian Book Industry Awards. Now, this heartwarming tale makes its way to the big screen, starring Lily LaTorre, Jai Courtney, Celeste Barber, Deborah Mailman, Matt Day, and Jack Thompson.
Set in the picturesque country town of Upson Downs, Runt follows 11-year-old Annie and her adopted stray dog, Runt, as they embark on an incredible journey to save her family’s farm. Their adventures take them from their small Australian town to the World Dog Championships in London in a story filled with kindness, friendship, and the courage to live your truth.
