[This is archived content and may not display in the originally intended format.]

The angriest and most political Australian film to emerge in these conservative times is, surprisingly, not strictly a feature or documentary, but a 55-minute sampled video artwork speaking directly to the history and mythology of Australian cinema itself and its racism, misogyny and homophobia. A new story is contructed, and it’s brash, brassy and cross.
