Part of Rage & Reinvention

Released in 2021 as founding band-member Dunstan Bruce, on the cusp of turning 60, found himself struggling with the fact that the world seemed to be going to hell in a handcart. Twenty years after his fall from grace, Bruce was angry and frustrated, but how does a retired middle-aged radical get back up again?

In this punk version of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, Dunstan is visited by the antagonistic ghost of his anarchist past – his alter ego, ‘Babyhead’ – who forces him to question his own life, sending him on a search for his long-lost anarchist mojo. Following Bruce’s personal voyage of rediscovery, redemption, and reawakening, I Get Knocked Down acts as a call to arms to those who think activism is best undertaken by someone else.

-----

Showing as part of our Rage & Reinvention series – for this special Q&A screening we'll be joined by director Sophie Robinson, alongside co-director and band-member Dunstan Bruce.

-----

Showing in partnership with friends at our local independent record store Jumbo Records.
