Tim McLaughlan

The place is Melbourne, Australia 1978. The punk phenomenon is sweeping the country and Dogs In Space, a punk group, are part of it. In a squat, in a dodgy suburb, live a ragtag collection of outcasts and don't-wanna-bes who survive on a diet of old TV space films, drugs and good music. And the satellite SKYLAB could crash through their roof at any moment...

Short in 4:3 black and white, written by Richard Lowenstein and directed by Tim McLaughlan (the original Tim played by Nique Needles in Dogs In Space), with George Vidalis, made at Swinburne Film & TV in 1977
