Project Detail

PUNK: attitude

Synopsis

In the mid 1970s, a revolution was ignited on the streets of London and New York - almost overnight it shattered the status quo and would have a lasting impact on future generations of youth culture. It redefined popular music and fashion, threatened the establishment, and legitimised an independent, do-it-yourself attitude. With a star-studded cast of historic and modern figures in popular culture, this feature-length film takes a highly original look at the Punk movement.

Combining recent interviews with rare and famous archival performances, a chronological narrative emerges, allowing this incredible story to tell itself.
