Sydney Film Festival Interview: Standing Up For Sunny

You may know him from Breaking Bad, but he’s moving to a much different pace of performance in this new Australian Rom-Com.

RJ Mitte, stars in the Australian Original Production “Standing Up For Sunny”. The film follows the story of Travis, a young man effected with Cerebral Palsy who has recently found himself out of a Job, and picking up shifts at a bar to stay afloat. There he meets Sunny, an aspiring Comedian who he soon finds himself falling in love with.

Taking a realistic and honest look at the daily struggles of living with a disability, the film is anything but afraid to explore and discuss issues of discrimination and ableism.

We were luck enough to have RJ Mitte himself in the Studio, to discuss the film, and his involvement.
