About Me


I created my own profile using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too!ROMULUS, MY FATHER is based on Raimond Gaita's critically acclaimed memoir. It tells the story of Romulus, his beautiful wife, Christina, and their struggle in the face of great adversity to bring up their son, Raimond. It is a story of impossible love that ultimately celebrates the unbreakable bond between father and son.Developed with director Richard Roxburgh over seven years, ROMULUS, MY FATHER has been adapted for the screen by poet and playwright, Nick Drake. It is both Richard and Nick's first feature film, and is produced by leading Australian production company, Arenafilm.Richard Roxburgh is best known as an actor and theatre director. His adaptation of Tim Winton's THAT EYE THE SKY is still regarded as one of the triumphs of Australian theatre.
