Stick around for a live performance after the screening!

This collage program will collect music videos, concert footage (some never before seen, not even on YouTube) and several NZ-based documentaries to tell (some of) the story of this lovely island nation’s incredibly fertile underground pop and experimental scene. Footage will span from 1978 to something like the present, featuring The Clean, Axemen, Tall Dwarfs, Alastair Galbraith, Bill Direen, Dead C, Snapper, Chills. JPSE, Alpaca Brothers, Look Blue Go Purple and more!
