Synopsis |
The first half of Dalmas follows an ex-cop's passage through the Melbourne drug scene in search of an anarchistic acid dealer, 'plastic man', whom he eventually tracks down to a seaside commune. Here, the film turns inside out, the camera reverses its gaze, becoming a documentary about the crew, the communal tribe, and the shared experience of drug taking and the filmmaking process. |
