Summary

Overview

DON'T BE PREY

Just like we opened with a bang, of course, we’ll go out with one!

After 12 days of soaking up gorgeous Gold Coast weather and inspirational films, we’ll have one final hurrah, watching ordinary people do extraordinary things with the Australia Premiere of DON'T BE PREY.

DON'T BE PREY is an edge-of-your-seat adventure into one man’s fight to reclaim his life by taking on the world’s most dangerous marathon swims, the Oceans Seven. Featuring unforgettable characters, raw vulnerability and breathtaking ocean feats, it’s a gripping, uplifting journey of resilience, reinvention and what it really takes to survive.

The Closing Night celebration of the 2026 Gold Coast Film Festival is only possible thanks to the support of our Major Partners Screen Queensland, Invest Gold Coast, Tourism and Events Queensland along with venue partner HOTA, Home of the Arts.
