Narrated exclusively by the original band members, the film delves deep into a band's psyche, chronicling how Nick Cave and his school friends startled audiences with their confrontational performances, primal screams, outlaw gothic horror, and anarchic lifestyle. Featuring never-before-seen personal footage from band members, dynamic animation sequences, and jaw-dropping concert clips, the film is the first fully authorised telling of The Birthday Party, and provides a sweaty, electrifying front-row seat to one of the most legendary live acts.
