The Combination is a powerful and deeply affecting story of a contemporary
Lebanese family in Urban Australia. John Morkos (George Basha) is released
from prison intent on a new life, free of his old ways. But he finds his
younger brother Charlie (Firass Dirani) being lured by the local underworld.
George¹s demands to stay clear of crime fall on deaf ears -- Charlie has no
respect for the former crim.
In the thrall of gang leader Zeus (Ali Haidar), Charlie¹s life oscillates
between the schoolyard punch-ups and the gangland streets of his
neighbourhood. When John meets Sydney (Clare Bowen), a local Aussie girl,
and finds a job at the local boxing gym his life is challenged in unexpected
ways. But Charlie¹s continuing descent into the world of crime places the
his whole family in harms way forcing John to risk his new life to right his
younger brother¹s wrong.
