About Guest
Sal is a man in his thirties with Down syndrome. He lives with his Mum Sophie, a struggling artist with a smoking habit and an aggressive form of lung cancer. Sophie only has weeks to live, and with no living family members, when she passes, her son will become a ward of the state, or homeless, Sal refuses to become neither.
Sal’s only hope is to locate his father, but Sal was a product of a one-night stand, and Sophie can only recall fragments of that night. He was a rock singer she met in 1983 at the Victoria Hotel where she used to work. Armed with only those few clues, Sal embarks on a journey through inner city Sydney to find his father.
