A Good Man
February 23rd, 2009
A Good Man is the story of Chris Rohrlach, a farmer from Inverell in rural New South Wales who also happens to be the full-time carer for his quadriplegic wife, Rachel. When times got tough on the farm, Chris decided to change industries and opened a brothel.
You read that right. Sounds like doco gold.
The film premieres at the 2009 Adelaide Film Festival on February 21. Chris Rohrlach will be in attendance for a post-screening Q & A.
I admire Chris yet I still miss my school friend Rachael – she had a fierce temper and was desperately in love with Chris – I expect she still is and is still making her feelings and temper known
Thanks for the comment. Chris and Rachel’s is indeed a touching story.
This looks incredible, will it show in Perth? I would love to see this.

Sorry I’m not sure of where else it’s screening – I too haven’t been able to see it yet.

I just seen the film and it is brilliant. Being friends of Chris and Rachel it is so fantastic to see such a film. Rachel is a fun loving girl, with a big heart and such a loving personality, while Chris is a man who deserves to win Father/Man of the year. They are two very very special people who deserve eachother. The film is great and I would recommend it to anyone.
I went to see this tonight at Canberra Film Festival and couldn’t get a ticket. Sold out very early apparently and it will not have a repeat screening.
Will it be available on video? Does anyone know how I can get to see it.
It sounds truly inspirational.

Bummer, I’m sure there will be more screenings and it will more than likely be on SBS/ABC at some stage
