"Cut Snake" is a thrilling and intense story in which a man discovers that his biggest enemy may be himself. Set in Melbourne in the mid-1970s, "Cut Snake" tells the tale of Sparra Farrell (Alex Russell, "Chronicle"), an ex-convict who is trying to make a new life for himself in a new city. He has found honest work and even becomes engaged, but the joys of his new life are challenged when his dreaded and charismatic cell mate, Pommie (Sullivan Stapleton, "300: Rise of an Empire"), hunts him down. Sparra finds himself enigmatically drawn back toward a world that he was so very close to leaving behind.
