Dir. Richard
Wolstencroft | 2000 | Australia | 95 min
The flick that launched a film festival. “Pearls
Before Swine” is the story of a hit man who is given a contract
on an author of subversive literature and pornography. We follow
the life of Daniel (Boyd Rice) in the week that leads up to the hit,
witnessing his passions, perversions and murderous career. An exploration
of the theme of violence, sadomasochism, fascism and politics are
mixed together in a uncompromising and immoral tale. Starring American
musician (NON)/writer/artist Boyd Rice as Daniel, Lisa Hutchinson,
Nick Crawford Smith and Greg Maxwell and featuring cameos by Ross
Wilson, David Thrussell, Greg Scealy, Baby Lemonade, Phil Motherwell,
George Huxley and Douglas P this film is an eclectic and disturbing
Oz treat. Loved by some and hated by many, find out what all the
fuss was about at this exclusive MUFF screening. The night will also
celebrate the release of the film on DVD in Europe. Featuring a first
ever screening of the camera test with introduction and Q&A with
Festival director and film director Richard Wolstencroft.
