YOUR RATING

LBF (2011) is the debut feature film from Writer/Director Alex Munt. LBF had its World Premiere at the 2011 South by Southwest Film Festival (SXSW), and its Australian Premiere at the 2011 Sydney International Film Festival.

Based on the cult novel by Cry Bloxsome, LBF (aka Â‘Living Between FucksÂ’) follows Paris based writer Goodchild (Toby Schmitz) as he returns to Australia for the funeral of his ex-girlfriend, The Dead Girl (Gracie Otto) and steadily goes off the rails. He becomes entangled with The Beautiful Financial Backer (Bianca Chiminello), who commissions him to write The Love Enterprise - a piece of corporate branding masquerading as Beat poetry. Charged with this new task and a heady cocktail of booze and drugs, Goodchild interviews people he encounters along the way. Drugs, parties, love, sex, lust, sobriety, solitude, no-sex and death collide in this hyper real, pop-culture infused portrait of twenty-something Goodchild, as he drifts through his life, memories and rock n' roll. A classic tale of sex, nihilism and urban summer heat, with a great cast of emergent talent including Toby Schmitz, Bianca Chiminello and Gracie Otto, all driven by an all Australian indie soundtrack. Performing live songs are: Teenagers in Tokyo, Kids At Risk, Tennis and Fergus Brown. On the soundtrack are: The Model School, Operator Please and Boy & Bear. LBF is a 'pop-art' film about love, loss and desperation.
