synopsis

Otto has the usual family; parents who love and embarrass him, a uni student sister who wants to change the world, a pop culture loving Nana, and a best friend, Max, who he’s secretly in love with. Add to that, a school bully out for blood and Otto has a lot to go through before he becomes what he really wants; to be out, happy and in love. Time to delve into the world of Otto!

Tasha O’Brien pulls out every effort to swing convincingly between a caring loving sister and an annoying bratty sister ★★★★ Sydney Scoop

Tasha O'Brien plays Otto's sister, Ava, and she nicely captures the essence of the less-than-dedicated uni student who becomes a source of support for Otto Weekend Notes
