We're Living on Dog Food
We're Living on Dog Food
An audience favourite at last year's Melbourne International Film Festial, Richard Lowenstein's documentary is not just a behind-the-scenes look at the making of Dogs in Space (screening at ACMI in August) but a snapshot of Melbourne's post-punk music scene in the early 1980s.

The late Rowland S. Howard, the Primitive Calculators, Ollie Olsen, Philip Brophy, Alannah Hill and many others reminisce to the sound of the underground.

"We're Living on Dog Food adds another dimension to a music scene in which being despised was the ultimate accolade" Real Time
