“Unknown Pleasures” is an attempt to throw some light on under-represented films and film-makers but, more than that, an attempt to foster a sense of community.

JOURNEY TO THE END OF NIGHT (1982, 70 mins, Peter Tammer)
Q&A with Peter Tammer & Video analysis by Adrian Martin
In an extraordinary 60-year body of work, Peter Tammer (who recently turned 80) has shown a depth matched by few other local filmmakers. Journey to the End of Night is probably the most rigorous and penetrative of the various portrait documentaries he has made. Bill Neave, war veteran, haunted by his WWII experiences in Papau New Guinea fighting the Japanese, bares his soul and his trauma, via a deep channeling of the past events, remembering key moments.
