Streets of Colour

There are many great Australian films but none better than Streets of Colour in telling the story of places like the Western Sydney with the social implications of multicultural and living in lower social class status.

The film is written well to reflect people's experiences (especially the director's) with racial conflict regardless on what side of the equation someone might be where many can only imagine what it is like to live and deal with an important matter as such.

Great Australian talent and parts played extremely well. Congratulations to the cast and crew on an amazing production. It's a must watch movie!

"Streets of Colour" delivers a gritty and realistic portrayal of the dangerous underbelly of the city. The film effectively captures the desperation and moral dilemmas faced by the protagonist as he navigates a life of crime. The performances are compelling, particularly the lead actor (Rahel Romahn) who brings a raw and visceral intensity to his role. The film's strong pacing keeps the audience engaged from start to finish. While the story occasionally struggles with predictability, overall, "Streets of Colour " is a gripping and well-executed film that will leave you with a powerful impact. Rated 8/10.

Absolutely adored Ronnie's method of storytelling, cast was brilliant, direction terrific, solid central character, film seemed to get better and better with each stanza, I found the end incredibly moving with a glorious overtone of love. The lightheartedness in the dark showed a very powerful message about survival, addressing the need to fit in whilst surrounded by overwhelming racism and undertones addressing the need for more voices to be heard in multicultural Australia, and calling out our quick judgements we make about peoples character. A film that not only must be seen by all Australians, but must be felt and heard by all globally with its universal message!

This film really surprised me, it's got a lot of heart. It's a great little story packed with so much drama I needed tissues constantly. There were so much sad scenes and heartbreaking situations it really spoke to me even though I couldn't relate to the character.

It's an intelligent dive into life in the suburbs that I had no idea about or even cared to think about. It delves into topics that people are scared to discuss such as racism, drug addiction and violence. For the running time it loses marks for rushing through drug montages and trying to cram so much in and I'm not a fan of the C word at all. The characters were all very interesting and felt very real, almost like they existed in the outer western suburbs of Sydney. I was genuinely frightened in some scenes and just made me feel uncomfortable. The film starts with a punch literally a few minutes in and then takes you through a journey. There are so many lovely moments I enjoyed in the film and even some moments of comic relief that left all of us laughing. All the actors were fantastic, and the music was so very touching, soothing and gentle.

There is a lot of talent in this film, most Australian productions have bigger budgets but don't have this much talent wrapped up in one film, The lead, the guy playing Gazza was just terrorizing, the best friend Kyle - just a heartbreaking performance and the guy who plays Vic, a homeless man who steals our hearts as an addicted man whose also part time lawnmower.

The film tries to sell you it's a "gangster" film but it's much more articulate and succinct than that. There's a lot going on in the head of that director because there are so many themes here to explore like death and loss, cultural identity and assimilation. Then there's friendship breakup, family, immigration and even spirituality / religion. Too much for one film? - I'll let you decide.

I'll finish by saying - you won't know what hit you with this film, if you want a really good story better than a lot of these Hollywood tentpole films with big actors and very little story - go and see Streets of Colour - you will walk like I did, an emotional mess and pleasantly surprised. - P. S - Bring lots of tissues.

Streets of colours- Directed by passionate filmmaker Ronnie S. Riskalla. Directly depicts the good, bad and the ugly in the society.

Excellent cast and crew and Rahel Rohman has lived the character with his acting skills.

The movie covers racism but also talks about cultural differences, family, loss, love- well written covering the social issues. I can't find anything bad apart from too many dark scenes for my liking.

The passionate display by each and everyone in this movie is commendable. A movie that will definitely touch us and go on an emotional roller coaster.

Well done and congratulations to the entire team for making an interesting, thought provoking movie.
