Rugby League doco Sharko has launched globally on Vimeo On Demand

Mark Graham.

After a successful Q&A event tour across Australia and a sold-out hometown premiere, the critically-acclaimed rugby league documentary Sharko is now available to rent or buy worldwide via Vimeo On Demand.

Widely regarded as one of the most inspirational and formidable athletes to ever play Rugby League, Mark Graham’s legacy extends far beyond the game. SHARKO presents an intimate and universal story of a father and son, examining generational patterns, family grief, and the complexities of masculinity.

At its heart, the film explores how sport shapes personal identity and national pride, reflecting on how men of a certain era were conditioned to embody hyper-masculinity. The documentary masterfully weaves together personal family archives, recreations, and footage from Mark’s storied career, which spanned three continents. SHARKO is an honest and deeply human portrayal of New Zealand’s greatest Rugby League player—an inspiring journey about confronting the past and moving forward.

To coincide with the digital release, the official Sharko merchandise store is now live, offering fans the opportunity to own exclusive and limited-edition t-shirts, posters, and more from the set of the film. This unique range celebrates the legacy of rugby league great Mark Graham and commemorates the emotional journey captured in the documentary.

“To now share Sharko with the world is a dream come true,” said director, Luke Graham.

“This story has always been about more than sport—it’s about family, identity, and healing. I’m humbled by the response we’ve had and thrilled fans everywhere can now experience the film and celebrate it with our exclusive merchandise.”

The film’s event screenings across Australia featured appearances by Graham, prominent Australian media figures, and Rugby League legends, creating a groundswell of support ahead of the global release.
