PUNK:ATTITUDE

PUNK:ATTITUDE, a comprehensive documentary film on punk music and the subsequent cultural impact of the movement, will be launched in the UK on DVD on 3rd October 2005 by Fremantle Media.

This new film has been written and directed by influential, Grammy award winning director Don Letts. Definitive, monumental, authoritative and controversial, Punk: Attitude is an absolute must for all music fans and punks (past, present and lapsed) and provides a unique inside track on this most significant music genre and social movement.

The film proved a big hit with the critics when it was shown at the prestigious Cannes and Tribeca film festivals earlier this year and is already being hailed as an important landmark in music documentary film making by both the film industry and music pundits.

Don Letts' success stems from the breadth of his artistic vision and his ability to deliver the component parts of a story that delves deeper and spreads itself wider than any previous punk 'rockumentary'- whilst steering clear of the usual clichés.

For the first time punk is put into a proper historical context and presented as part of a greater evolution of music and society in general. Punk is thought provokingly traced right back to the American music of the 1950's and documented through its explosion onto the music scene in the 1970's (against a background of social unrest and discontented youth).
