Alors que le cinéma australien a percé auprès du public international dans les années 1970 grâce à des films d'art et d'essai respectés comme "Picnic at Hanging Rock" de Peter Weir, un nouveau groupe clandestin de réalisateurs de films d'exploitation à petit budget produisait des œuvres beaucoup moins nobles. Le documentariste Mark Hartley explore cette ère de sexe et de violence débridée, avec des extraits de certains des films les plus scandaleux de la scène et des entretiens avec les cinéastes renégats eux-mêmes.

Admired as one of the best lyricists of pop rock, Bob Dylan has his name recorded in music history. During his four decades career, he has been through many facets: from acoustic to electric guitar; from politicized to religious lyrics; from minimalist to very highly sophisticated arrangements. And his characteristic voice, for some, hoarse and full of style, for others a little out of tune, still influences many musicians. In this presentation filmed at the Sydney Entertainment Centre in Australia over February 24-25 1986, Dylan is accompanied by Tom Petty and the band The Heartbreakers, as well as a very fine selection of new compositions. To close the spectacle, Bob Dylan and Tom Petty perform a vocal duet in "Knockin' on heaven's door", one of the most famous songs of this compositor.
