It’s not only an in-yer-face exploration of punk culture, it’s also a well overdue exploration of an oft-ignored tragedy.
Punks For West Papua, a powerful new documentary, is scheduled to screen during a special one-off event at Wayward Brewery. The film aims to highlight the ongoing tragedy in West Papua, a region afflicted by violence and oppression, and the punk bands committed to raising money for the cause.
Given how little the mainstream media reports on the crisis, the screening will provide a searing look at a too often ignored tragedy, so prepare to have your conscience rattled.
Punks For West Papua screens at Wayward Brewery Co on Wednesday April 6. More information is available via the film’s Facebook page, here.
