We’re thrilled to screen the short film ‘Rhythm is Key’ by Andre “Dre” Muller at Petersham Bowling Club on Wednesday, May 20 from 7pm.

For Ryan, the daily humdrum is draining and dehumanizing. Steered by an incessant and inescapable stimulus, the repetitive and rhythmic nature of his existence is profoundly punctuated. Bewildered, weary and at his wit’s end, he desires depth and yearns for more - to break the mold. The question is, does he have what it takes to leap out of the looped life that he’s leading?

Starring: David Schrader [as Ryan]
Cinematographer: Phil Drayton
Editor: Andre “Dre” Muller
Sound Recordist: Emmanuel Drakakis
