- Synopsis:
Hasan Shah and Dorn Shaw's fabulous movie of the post punk period between 1978 and 1981 unearthed from an archive after twenty years that is more than just a music record; featuring as it does the looks, the poses, the rucks, the riots and the slaggings of bands and their fans. Filmed by a bunch of spit covered teenagers, this is not so much a documentary as a series of forays into the opinions of the protagonists of Punk, Mod, Oi, Dance and Ska; the kids on the street, the music, press and of course, the bands themselves. Originally, shot on Super 8 and blown up to 16mm, the film retains its rough and ready cut to produce a gem of street level cinema. Also has some cracking performances from exponents of punk, mod, oi and ska all filmed in the same DIY ethic that spawned punk itself'. - Actors:
