Dunstan Bruce Sophie Robinson 2021

Part music documentary, part unflinching character study, part a punk version of ‘A Christmas Carol’ – I Get Knocked Down is the funny, surreal and deeply human story of the most audacious anarchist music experiment of all time and a call to arms to those who think activism is best undertaken by someone else. Dunstan Bruce is 59 and he’s struggling with the fact that the world seems to be going to hell in a handcart. He’s wondering where did it all go wrong? For him. For humanity. But how does a middle-aged, retired radical, who now feels invisible get back up again? An extraordinary, inspiring film for our times.
