McLean, who wrote and directed Wolf Creek, has directed Jungle. It is based on a true story and stars Daniel Radcliffe as adventurer Yossi Ghinsberg.
Ghinsberg and friends travelled from La Paz in Bolivia on what was supposed to be the adventure of a lifetime but their dream trip soon turned into a wilderness nightmare.
Swedish-Sami filmmaker Amanda Kernell’s debut feature will also be screened. Sami Blood follows social prejudices in 1930s Sweden.
The showcase also features The Butterfly Tree starring Melissa George and The Song Keepers from award-winning director Naina San.
The Melbourne International Film Festival’s travelling showcase is at Star Cinema from September 8 to 10. Visit www.starcinema.org.au for tickets and details.
