Newcastle is the eagerly anticipated debut feature from award winning writer/director Dan Castle.

Set in the coastal town of Newcastle this visceral action drama is a coming-of-age tale of elusive dreams and the eternal wave.

Combining sublime surfing beaches with the raw energy, music and rebellion of teen culture, Newcastle tells the story of 17-year old Jesse who lives in the shadow of his older brother Victor’s failure to become surfing's Next Big Thing.

Even when he's in his natural habitat of magnificent surf breaks, Jesse’s blue-collar future is reinforced by the coal barges that constantly line his horizon. Jesse has the natural skills to surf his way out of this coastal town and onto the international circuit but can he overcome his equally natural ability to sabotage himself?

A momentous weekend away with his mates that includes first love and tragedy leads Jesse to discover what’s really important.

‘Newcastle’ features a young cast of stars-in-the-making, as well as veteran actors Shane Jacobson (Reggie, Jesse’s Dad), Anthony Hayes (Danny) and Barry Otto (‘Gramps’).
