WAKE UP PUNK will be in selected UK Cinemas from 5th May 2022.
Republic Films is excited to share the trailer for new documentary, WAKE UP PUNK, which is coming to select cinemas 5th May and all major digital platforms 9th May.
Fresh off its World premiere at the Glasgow Film Festival, WAKE UP PUNK, comes from the heart of the Punk movement and is a unique insight into the true origins of punk.
Directed by Nigel Askew, the film features fascinating, in-depth interviews with Punk legends from 'Queen Of Punk' Jordan, aka Pamela Rooke, who sadly died of cancer over the weekend, to Punk and Fashion Icon Vivienne Westwood.
Joe Corré, son of punk visionaries Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm McLaren, burns an estimated £5M worth of punk memorabilia protesting the commodification of punk.
WAKE UP PUNK takes this incendiary act of ‘cultural terrorism’ and the questions it raised to explore the lifespan and true worth of punk - the 20th century's most volatile movement.
With a fusion of documentary and magical realism, the film captures intimate moments between Vivienne and her two sons Ben and Joe as they candidly discuss their own relationship with McLaren and stories from the punk era.
