Runt is a brand new family movie in cinemas around the country from September 19, but if you’re in Melbourne, you can see it at MIFF on the 25th of August.

Written by Craig Silvey, based on his book of the same name and directed by John Sheedy, Runt tells the story of Annie Shearer and her best friend, a stray dog called Runt. When her family's farm comes under threat from drought and a local landowner, Annie concocts a plan to save it: by putting Runt’s herding talents to good use in the Agility Course Grand Championships at the Krumpets Dog Show in London.

Starring Jai Courtney, Celeste Barber, Deborah Mailman, Jack Thompson and Tom Budge, and introducing the wonderful Lily LaTorre as Annie.

Runt also stars the guest on this episode, Matt Day, who, despite not finishing high school, does very well all by himself at the quiz.
