Outback Australia in 1971. Kid Snow (starring Billy Howle), a 30-year-old washed-up Irish fighter in a raucous travelling tent-boxing show, is offered a rematch against the man he fought ten years ago. It's his chance to turn the page on a tragedy that changed his life forever. But when the feisty single mother Sunny crosses Kid's path, he is forced to contemplate a future beyond life on the road. Kid Snow is directed by Australian filmmaker Paul Goldman, director of the movies Australian Rules, All the Way, Suburban Mayhem, Cannot Buy My Soul, "Conspiracy 365", and Ego: The Michael Gudinski Story previously. The screenplay is written by John Brumpton, Stephen Cleary, and Shane Danielsen. Produced by Lizzette Atkins, Bruno Charlesworth, and Megan Wynn. This initially premiered at the 2024 Sydney Film Festival last year and it already opened in Australia last year.

A washed-up Irish boxer named Kid Snow is faced with a chance to redeem himself when he is offered a rematch against the man he fought a decade prior. When he meets single mother Sunny, he is forced to think of a future beyond boxing.
Kid Snow is set for release on February 14th.
Boxing, at its core, is more than just a sport. It's a metaphor for life—the punches we take, the rounds we endure, and the moments when we find the strength to rise again. The upcoming indie sports drama Kid Snow, directed by Paul Goldman, explores this universal truth through the story of a washed-up Irish boxer seeking redemption in the dusty expanse of 1971 Outback Australia. The official trailer, released by Samuel Goldwyn Films, gives audiences a glimpse into this contemplative tale of second chances and self-discovery.

Billy Howle steps into the shoes of Kid Snow, a 30-year-old ex-fighter whose glory days are long behind him. Reduced to performing in a rowdy traveling tent-boxing show, his life takes an unexpected turn when he's offered a rematch with the man who defeated him a decade earlier. The stakes are personal; this fight is not just about reclaiming his honor but also about exorcising the ghosts of a tragedy that derailed his life. The trailer hints at a raw, emotional journey, underscored by Howle's quietly intense performance.

The story takes a compelling twist with the introduction of Sunny, a spirited single mother played by Phoebe Tonkin. Her presence forces Kid to envision a future beyond the ring, challenging him to reconcile his past with the possibility of a new life. The chemistry between Howle and Tonkin, as teased in the trailer, suggests a poignant dynamic that elevates the narrative beyond the typical sports drama.

Director Paul Goldman, known for his work on Australian Rules and Suburban Mayhem, brings his nuanced storytelling to the fore, supported by a screenplay penned by John Brumpton, Stephen Cleary, and Shane Danielsen. The cinematography captures the rugged beauty of the Australian Outback, creating a stark yet poetic backdrop that mirrors Kid Snow's inner turmoil.

While early reviews from the 2024 Sydney Film Festival—where the film premiered—have been mixed, many critics have praised its reflective tone and emotional depth. One reviewer aptly described it as “a contemplative work about broken people trying to let go of the things that hold them back.”

Scheduled for a US release in select theaters and on VOD this February 14, 2025, Kid Snow is positioned as a winter offering that's equal parts heart and grit. The film's timeless themes of redemption, love, and resilience promise to resonate with audiences long after the credits roll.

Kid Snow Poster
Personal Impressions:

The trailer for Kid Snow evokes a sense of gritty realism, much like classic boxing dramas such as Raging Bull or The Fighter. Billy Howle's portrayal feels raw and authentic, capturing the weariness of a man burdened by his past yet quietly yearning for a future. The film's focus on relationships—particularly the transformative bond between Kid and Sunny—offers an emotional counterpoint to the visceral physicality of boxing. If the full feature delivers on the trailer's promise, it could stand as a poignant exploration of resilience and the human spirit.

Reception and accolades
The film received mixed reviews from critics. Luke Buckmaster of The Guardian criticised the film's "borderline laboured" screenplay and dialogue, and pointed out issues with its pacing, stating "the structure drifts and you don't get a strong sense the drama is escalating and the stakes increasing." He however praised the "compelling performances" of Howle and Tonkin, stating the latter "brings a weary, baggy-eyed melancholia that’s quite interesting; you can feel her nudging the drama towards a heavier and moodier key."[5]

Damien Straker of Impulse Gamer also praised Tonkin's acting, pointing out her "tough, resilient turn" in the role.[6] Cris Kennedy of Inner East Review and Sandra Hall of Sydney Morning Herald were more positive towards the film overall; both also drew particular attention to Tonkin's performance.

For her acclaimed performance, Tonkin received a nomination for the AACTA Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role at the 2025 ceremony.[7]

In December 2010, a sequel was announced, in which Tonkin was expected to return,[7] but production never eventuated. In January 2011, Tonkin moved to Los Angeles to pursue her international acting career.[8] In March 2011, she was cast as Faye Chamberlain in The CW's supernatural drama series The Secret Circle,[9] which premiered on 15 September 2011 to over 3.5 million viewers.[10][11] The series follows a group of young witches who form a secret coven.

Online.[13] The show, however, had only one full season and was cancelled on 11 May 2012.[14]

In August 2010, Tonkin was cast in the 3D horror film Bait 3D.[15] Filming took place in the coastal city of Gold Coast, Queensland; the film follows a group of strangers trapped in a supermarket with a pack of great white sharks after a freak tsunami.

In August 2012, Tonkin joined the cast of The CW television series The Vampire Diaries, in the recurring role of Hayley, a friend of Tyler's.

The film will be directed by Paul and Benjamin China.[29] Tonkin was featured in the 2023 historical fiction narrative podcast The Foxes of Hydesville, playing Leah Fox's companion, Adelaide Granger.[30] In 2024, she starred as a struggling, drug addicted mother in Boy Swallows Universe, a Netflix coming of age miniseries based on the acclaimed semi-autobiographical novel of the same name by Trent Dalton. The series received widespread praise from critics, with Tonkin's performance being singled out as one of her best.[31] Jessica Baker of WhoWhatWear wrote that Tonkin "is in the midst of a transformative period. Coming off a truly spectacular dramatic performance in Boy Swallows Universe."[32] Dalton, who wrote the eponymous novel the series is based on, also praised Tonkin's performance, stating "Phoebe went right ahead and gave a performance across eight hours of television that is so raw and exposing and true and dark-as-night-sometimes and so filled with light and hope and heart and LOVE that it reminded me why I wanted to write Boy Swallows Universe in the first place."[33] For her performance in Boy Swallows Universe, Tonkin was nominated for the 2024 Logie Award for Best Lead Actress in a Drama and the 2025 AACTA Award for Best Lead Actress in a Drama Series - the show also garnering a record breaking 22 AACTA nominations in total.[34]

Tonkin's next project, the drama film Kid Snow, premiered at the Sydney Film Festival that same year.[35][36] For Kid Snow, Tonkin was nominated for another AACTA award, the 2025 AACTA Award for Best Lead Actress in a Film. Whilst the film itself did not gain favourable reviews critically, Tonkin has been painted as a standout amongst the cast with her performance described as 'compelling'.[37]

Also in the same year, Tonkin's film "And On The Eight Day" directed by Alexandra Chando premiered in April at Dallas International Film Festival[38] after the film wrapped production in June 2023 in Texas.[39] and has also appeared in the Chelsea Film Festival in New York.[40]

In October 2020, Tonkin launched her own clothing brand "Lesjour!", a sustainable loungewear brand which Tonkin describes as being inspired by the leisure suit of the 70's and California living. Tonkin cited that the clothing brand was the reason she relocated permanently from New York back to LA - where the brand was designed, manufactured using EcoVero, and ships from. Tonkin stated that she'd had the idea for a clothing brand for two years, and decided to launch it as her job as an actress was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.[55][56][57]

Handlung
In den 1970er Jahren im australischen Outback. Nachdem aus Kid Snows Karriere als Profiboxer nichts wurde, verdient er sein Geld bei einer heruntergekommenen, reisenden Boxshow.[1]

Produktion
Regie und Drehbuch
„Mir gefiel der erzählerische Schwung. Mir gefiel der Hintergrund, mir gefiel die Welt des Boxens im Zelt. Ich hatte mich immer gefragt, warum noch niemand einen Film in dieser Welt angesiedelt hatte.“

– Regisseur Paul Goldman über John Brumptons Drehbuch[2]
Regie führte Paul Goldman. Er drehte in der Vergangenheit mehrere sozialkritische Filme über die Lebensverhältnisse der Aborigines und des australischen Lebens und führte auch bei Spielfilmen wie Australian Rules und Suburban Mayhem Regie.[2] Das Drehbuch schrieben John Brumpton und Stephen Cleary. Die Idee für die in Kid Snow erzählte Geschichte stammt von Brumpton.[3] Auch wenn Goldman die Figuren und in Welt, in der die Geschichte angesiedelt war, gefielen, wollte er eine starke Frau zwischen diese beiden Männer treten lassen, eine Fremde, die ihr Leben auf den Kopf stellt. So entstand Sunnys Figur, die mit ihrem kleinen Sohn vor häuslicher Gewalt aus Sydney geflohen ist und ein Feuer in Kids Herz und Seele entzündet und ihn etwas inneren Frieden finden lässt.[2]

Seinen respektvollen Umgang im Film mit strippenden Frauen wie Sunny, die als Burlesque-Tänzerin arbeitet, schaute sich der Regisseur nach eigenen Aussagen bei dem fotografischen Essay Carnival Strippers ab, den die Fotografin und Fotojournalistin Susan Meiselas als junge Frau Anfang der 1970er Jahre erstellte und in dem sie den Alltag von Frauen zeigt, die als Striptease-Tänzerinnen ihr Geld auf Jahrmärkten im Nordosten der USA verdienten. Goldman gab das Fotobuch seinen Schauspielern, Szenenbildnern und Kostümbildern als Arbeitshilfe.[4][3]

Auch Goldmans Freund Phillip Gwynne, der die Romanvorlage mit dem Titel Deadly, Unna? für seinen Film Australian Rules geschrieben hatte, leistete wichtige Arbeit am Drehbuch zu Kid Snow. Der australische Schriftsteller liebe es nach Aussage des Regisseurs, sich mit maskulinen Welten auseinanderzusetzen.[2]

Er habe Boxerfilme schon immer gemocht, so der Regisseur, und Wie ein wilder Stier sei ein sehr wichtiger Film für ihn gewesen. Einer der Filme, die Goldman bei Kid Snow sehr beeinflusst haben, war der Film Fat City von John Huston aus dem Jahr 1972 mit Conrad L. Hall hinter der Kamera. Besonders die Machart und das Szenenbild seien in Kid Snow eingeflossen.[2]

Besetzung, Szenenbild und Dreharbeiten

Phoebe Tonkin spielt Sunny
Billy Howle, bekannt aus Filmen wie Am Strand und Outlaw King, spielt in der Titelrolle den abgehalfterten Budenboxer Kid Snow. Phoebe Tonkin, die zuletzt in der Fernsehserie Boy Swallows Universe zu sehen war, spielt Sunny. Der Brite Tom Bateman spielt Kids Bruder Rory. Tristan Gorey spielt den Profiboxer Hammer Marina. Auch Drehbuchautor John Brumpton übernahm im Film eine kleine Rolle und spielt Jack.[2] In weiteren Rollen sind Mark Coles Smith als Lovely, Tasma Walton als Betty, Shaka Cook als Armless und Hunter Page-Lochard als Lizard zu sehen.[5][3]

Das Szenenbild schuf Clayton Jauncey. In dem Zelt, in dem große Teile des Films gedreht wurden, boxte einst Roy Bell, einer der berühmtesten Budenboxer in der Geschichte des australischen Zeltboxens. Dieses gehört Michael Karaitiana und war in einem Schuppen etwas außerhalb von Dubbo gelagert.[2]

Die Dreharbeiten fanden größtenteils in Kalgoorlie in Western Australia statt.[2] Weitere Aufnahmen entstanden in der Stadt Fremantle an der Westküste Australiens.[6] Kameramann Garry Phillips ist unter anderem für seine Arbeit für Jonathan Teplitzkys Kriegsfilm Die Liebe seines Lebens von 2013 mit Colin Firth, Jeremy Irvine und Nicole Kidman in den Hauptrollen bekannt, für die er 2015 bei den AACTA Awards nominiert wurde.

Marketing und Veröffentlichung
Der erste Trailer für Kid Snow wurde Mitte Mai 2024 vorgestellt.[7] Die Premiere des Films fand am 11. Juni 2024 beim Sydney Film Festival statt.[1] Am 3. Juli 2024 eröffnete Kid Snow das Revelation Film Festival in Perth.[5] Im August 2024 wird der Film beim Melbourne International Film Festival vorgestellt.[8]
