Join the live audience at GoMA Cinema A this Saturday August 2nd at midday

If you're going to be in Brisbane on Saturday August 2nd, then you might like to get along to the Gallery of Modern Art.

Australia Talks will be recording a forum that's part of the Brisbane International Film Festival and the topic is the Australian film industry of the seventies and early eighties.

There's the Adventures of Barry McKenzie and Alvin Purple of course but a lot more films that you might not be so familiar with. The films of that period constitute a whole genre in Australian film , some of them endorsed by Quentin Tarantino no less. There's over-the-top violence, out of control car chases and acres of naked flesh.

The forum is called 'Ozploitation' and it starts at 12 noon on Saturday. We'd love Love to see you there for Australia Talks, at the Gallery of Modern Art Cinema A
on Brisbane's Southbank.
