SHOTS


Michael Grant is a businessman from the suburbs. Wayne Stevens is a killer, living in an unpredictable world of crime, drugs and violence, constantly teetering on the edge of life and death. Grant and Stevens want each other’s lives.

Grant’s violent longings are quelled by domestic concerns and his inability to escape from ordinariness, while Stevens yearns to become the quintessential suburbanite. When their paths finally cross, it seems they may have the opportunity to exchange fates. Shots explores Melbourne’s different worlds, and the ways in which they coexist — and sometimes collide.
