Directed by Friðrik Þór Friðriksson (1982). Considered one of the most important documentaries about Icelandic alternative music culture, this film showcases the music scene through several performances of Post-Punk and New Wave bands, including Tappi Tíkarrass, Purrkur Pillnikk and Þeyr. The documentary deftly portrays, through concert footage and musician interviews, the lifestyle of Icelandic youth rebelling against the establishment, while simultaneously trying to create their own identities. 83 min.
