‘Of an Age’ (2023)
Directed by Goran Stolevski, the romantic drama ‘Of an Age’ follows a 17-year-old Serbian immigrant and ballroom dancer named Nikola living in Melbourne during the summer of 1999. When his dance partner gets stranded, Nikola enlists the help of her older brother, Adam, sparking an unexpected and intense 24-hour connection before Adam departs the country. A decade later, the two men cross paths once again at a wedding reunion that forces them to confront unresolved feelings from their past. This acclaimed Australian coming-of-age feature will officially depart from the Peacock streaming library on October 6, 2026.
‘Don’t Shoot’ (2017)
