The Tryer: Beyond The Lights

By Michael Holding

Kai Dunbar had everything.

Raw talent. A professional contract. The bright lights of the NRL.

And in one reckless night, he lost it.

Raised in the cane fields of North Queensland, Kai was the kid destined to make it - the pride of his family, the hope of his town. Rugby league was his way out. His future. His identity.

But success has a shadow.

Suspended and publicly disgraced, Kai is forced back to the place that remembers every mistake. The headlines fade. The spotlight moves on. What remains is harder: facing the people he disappointed - and the man he has become.

The Tryer - Beyond the Lights is a powerful Australian drama about ambition, ego, loyalty, and the brutal cost of poor choices - on and off the field.

Because talent gets you noticed.
Character decides what happens next.
