RAGE

The film centers on Julie Mac and her crew, known as Sharpies, as they confront the challenges of adolescence. Through Julie's eyes, viewers experience the vibrant and rebellious atmosphere of 1970s Melbourne, where the camaraderie among her friends is tested against the backdrop of a chaotic urban landscape.

A pivotal element of the story is Julie's relationship with an Italian tailor who crafts her signature 'Connie' cardigan. This cardigan symbolizes her identity within the Sharpie subculture, highlighting the ways in which fashion and personal expression intertwine during this formative period of her life.

RAGE is inspired by the book RAGE: A Sharpie's Journal, Melbourne 1974 - 1980 by Julie Mac. It provides a unique look into a specific youth culture and the bonds formed during a time of rebellion and self-discovery. This film may appeal to those interested in both historical narratives and the exploration of subcultures.
