This week on Women InSession, we analyze the popular Australian comedy from 1997 The Castle and discuss its impact on Australian culture! Many of us that hail from the Western part of the world may not be familiar with this film, but as Zita eloquently lays out, the film was immensely admired in Oceania. So, we thought it would be fun to talk about why it had the impact it did and how it holds up today through a 2025 lens.
Panel: Zita Short, Kristin Battestella
