Movie propaganda
Night is a stunning and cinematic big screen event documentary which celebrates Australia at night. Showing society in all its forms, people and places, urban and rural, Night explores the universal nature of night and how we experience it.
Night is a combination of beautiful and arresting imagery which captures the mystery, mood and magic of the night and weaves these images with a lush and dramatic symphonic score from renowned composer Cezary Skubiszewski. It is brought together by people from all walks of life telling their stories of what the night means to them, the pleasure and the pain, in reality and fantasy, work and leisure, past and present. It shows people from all cultures going about their daily lives under the darkness of the wondrous nature of night and juxtaposes the amazing differences in our varied existence between dusk and the dawn of a new day.

Theatrical report
Calling all creatures of the night!
Filmed between the hours of dusk and dawn, Night is a filmmaker's look at the nocturnal life, from parties to prostitutes, from dancers to drunks. Being an art-house film, there are lots of beautiful images and images of images, both from nature and from people - stars cycling through the heavens, crashing storms, high-wire artists. There are also many not-beautiful images - skanky hos picking up tricks, drunken revellers, seedy dives. Added to this zesty melange of urban and rural life are interviews - mostly in voice-over - with certain denizens of the darkness - from performers to police to party-goers.
The soundtrack is dramatic, symphonic and large.
It's all very artistic.
The art-house, Australia, documentary movie Night is directed by Lawrence Johnston.
