Set in a social housing estate in central Sydney, 57 Lawson preserves the disparate voices of the tenants at a time when these communities are becoming increasingly marginalised by the city around them. A patient observation of the daily lives of the area’s inhabitants over the course of one evening, 57 Lawson is a hybrid drama-documentary film about a specific place at a specific time.

This Australian-Croatian co-production appropriates Homer's tale of Penelope, which follows a woman's psychological struggle as she waits twenty years for her husband to return from the Trojan War.
