Proof

Proof (1991) is an Australian drama you can watch online on iFILM. Martin has been blind since birth and trusts no one's account of the world around him. So he takes photographs — for him the pictures are the one way to check whether people are lying.

Hugo Weaving plays Martin as guarded and prickly. He befriends Andy, a young dishwasher who describes the images Martin can't see — one of Russell Crowe's first real roles. Standing between them is Celia, Martin's housekeeper, whose love for him has curdled into obsession and who sets out to wreck the friendship. Jocelyn Moorhouse's debut took a prize at Cannes and still ranks among the strongest Australian films of its decade. A spare, uneasy study of trust and manipulation.
