Bill Direen: A Memory of Others

Follow NZ writer, poet and indie-rocker Bill Direen as he explores the cultural landscape and presents a series of live performances. From Simon Ogston, director of prior documentaries on Skeptics and Philip Dadson.

"A road movie following his first national tour in more than a decade, A Memory of Others follows Direen from Dunedin, to Christchurch, to Wellington, to Auckland. In each city he reunites with old bandmates or works with new collaborators to produce a succession of strikingly different performances... As stimulating as the man it profiles, A Memory of Others is an in-depth exploration of his music and writing, providing a glimpse of our social history and current milieu through his eyes." (New Zealand International Film Festival)
