...He's down but not out.
Directed by Jeffrey Walker
Produced by Film Victoria, ZDF Enterprises
A noir-inflected Australian crime drama about a man rebuilding his life while being pulled back into the criminal underworld, balancing wry humor with genuine moral complexity.
Jack Irish is a man getting his life back together again. A former criminal lawyer whose world imploded, he now spends his days as a part-time investigator, debt collector, apprentice cabinet maker, punter and sometime lover - the complete man really. Jack is an expert in finding those who don't want to be found - dead or alive. He helps out his mates while avoiding the past. That is until the past finds him.
