BEING PUNK

This documentary tells the story of Punk's arrival to Northern Ireland in the 1970s, during a time of sectarianism and violence. Through Academics, Punk Bands, and personal life stories we understand Punk's significant meaning during the troubles and on the lives of those who still choose Punk today.
