Inspired by films such as Fellini's
8 1/2 and Truffaut's
Day for Night, Dave Jones'
Yakkety Yak follows a filmmaker and university lecturer (played by the director himself) as he attempts to make a film in the basement of a building.
It's literally a classic underground comedy in which a group of people fight over the logistics of making a truly collective, revolutionary and existential movie. When original intentions get sidetracked, all attempts to set things straight result in a different - but strangely similar - script. Also starring John Flaus.
Followed by a panel discussion hosted by the Australian Film Critics Association, with actor John Flausand and director Dave Jones live via phonelink from Philiadelphia, USA.
