Based on the children's book series by David McRobbie, this quirky yet wholesome family comedy explores a typical suburban Australian upbringing from the perspective of 12-year-old Wayne Wilson.

The Wayne Manifesto takes us into the world of 12-year-old Wayne Wilson, his Mum, Dad, and sister, and his friends Squocka, Violet and Rosie. When the Wilson family move to their new home, Wayne wants nothing more than to fit in. He wants to make new friends and keep out of the way of the school bully. Teaming up with the local kids - the laid back Squoka, the self reliant Violet and the young energetic Rosie - Wayne takes on life with enormous optimism. The Wayne Manifesto shows us the world as Wayne would like it to be and the world as it really is. Through his limitless imagination, Wayne has wild fantasies of a world perfect for a 12-year-old.
