Win double passes to special “CAGE-A-PALOOZA” preview screenings of The Surfer in Melbourne and Sydney

Thanks to Stan and Madman Films, we have double-passes to see The Surfer at preview events in both Melbourne and Sydney to giveaway. Starring Nicholas Cage, The Surfer was filmed in Western Australia, and to celebrate its release, “CAGE-A-PALOOZA” screening events are being held at The Astor in Melbourne and The Hayden Orpheum Picture Palace in Sydney.

Per Madman, “Filmed in Western Australia, Nicolas Cage plays a man who returns to the idyllic beach of his childhood to surf with his son. When humiliated by a group of powerful locals, he is drawn into a conflict that rises with the punishing heat of the summer and pushes him right to his breaking point.”
