Widely regarded as one of the greatest Rugby League players ever, hard-man Mark “Sharko” Graham was feared off and on the field, though little knew the real man or the destruction behind his success. For the first time, Mark’s story is being told, most extraordinarily, through the in-depth lens of his film-maker son, Luke.
SHARKO is a universal story about a failed father, a distant son, generational patterns and family grief. It is also a very Australian story about how men were raised to be hyper-masculine, and the importance of sport, how it defines us as a nation. Featuring appearances from Graham Lowe, Wayne Bennett, Wally Lewis, family archives and recreations, as well as footage of a career spanning three continents, SHARKO will show us how to overcome the past in an honest, humanising and touching portrait about one of the greatest Rugby League players... ever.
