Adored comedian and director with Guilty Lawrence Leung (Choose Your Own Adventure) is behind this coming-of-age story of cons, cheats, love and lies. As Sucker rolls out into cinemas and with special Q&A screenings, writer Lawrence Leung, director Ben Chessell (Offspring; Rush) and YouTube sensation John Luc (mychonny) are beginning to attain awards and receive fantastic commendation from fans and critics alike.
