Film at CAT - Babyteeth

Babyteeth is an Australian comedy-drama based upon a stage play about a terminally ill teen who upsets her parents when she falls in love with a small-time drug dealer. It's her parents' worst nightmare. But as Milla's (played by Eliza Scanlen) first brush with love brings her a new lust for life, things get messy and traditional morals go out the window. Milla soon shows everyone in her orbit including her parents (played by Ben Mendelsohn and Essie Davis) how to live like you have nothing to lose. What might have been a disaster for the Finlay family instead leads to letting go and finding grace in the glorious chaos of life. “Babyteeth” joyously explores how good it is not to be dead yet and how far we will go for love.
