He Died with a Felafel in His Hand is a 2001 Australian comedy-drama film directed by Richard Lowenstein and starring Noah Taylor.

The film draws on the 1994 memoir of the same name and consists of a series of vignettes from a young man's experience of sharing accommodation with a variety of characters.

[1] The film opens with Danny (Noah Taylor) discovering his friend Flip (Brett Stewart) dead in their flat.

Thugs visit the house demanding unpaid rent, and the residents fail to impress them with their claims.

During the party, a pagan ritual takes place, and skinheads, along with Taylor's invited gang, confront the thugs.

Danny and Satomi quickly leave, with their belongings, exchanging heartfelt words with Flip before departing.

Danny decides to give up writing, discarding his books and throwing his typewriter into Sydney Harbour.

Anya and Nina move to France together, and Sam gives Danny a roll of teletype paper to inspire his writing.
