Miranda Otto was all smiles as she stepped out with her family on Saturday to attend the Sydney Film Festival premiere of a documentary about her father Barry Otto.

The family stepped out together to celebrate the release of filmmaker Gracie’s new documentary, Revealed: Otto by Otto, about veteran Australian actor Barry, 83.

In the feature film, Heartbreak High director Gracie attempts to capture memories with her and Miranda’s father Barry amid his battle with Alzheimer’s disease.

Stepping out to support her sister, Miranda showed off her style in a glittering snake print overcoat, which she teamed with a navy blue blouse and black trousers.

Gracie’s film is described as ‘captivating’, but not as a traditional biopic. Rather, it is ‘a deeply personal reflection on her relationship with her father, recorded over five years, in the twilight of his career and as his health deteriorated’

Actor Peter, 61, who met Miranda in 2003 while they were in a theater production of A Doll’s House together, wore an all-black ensemble for the occasion.

He added a pop of color to his outfit with a bright red scarf as he smiled for the cameras.

Meanwhile, their daughter Darcey kept it simple, wearing a long black coat over a white dress.

Miranda is the daughter of legendary actor and artist Barry and his first wife Lindsay Otto, while Gracie’s parents are Barry and his second wife Susan Hill.

For the premiere, Miranda showed off her style in a shimmering snake print overcoat, which she paired with a navy blue blouse and black pants.

Gracie’s documentary Revealed: Otto by Otto has been described as ‘captivating’, but not as a traditional biopic about her father and Australian icon Barry.

Rather, it is “a deeply personal reflection on her relationship with her father, filmed over five years, in the twilight of his career and as his health deteriorated.”

In the film, Gracie takes her father to Brisbane to relive his childhood, his poor upbringing and his first foray into the theater in moving scenes.

The documentary also reveals Barry’s health struggles after he was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease.

Barry (pictured in 2015) has had an impressive film and theater career spanning over 50 years and is known for his roles in Bliss, Cosi and Strictly Ballroom, among others

The family kept Barry’s diagnosis quiet for a while, partly so he could continue working, but he believed the film could help others cope with the disease.

“Obviously every family is going through this differently and there are hard times, angry times and frustrating times,” Otto told the Sydney Morning Herald. “But you can go through it and see the comedy, too.”
