LBF
VN:F [1.9.8_1114]
Rating: 2.8/5 (4 votes cast)

Based on the cult novel by Australian author Cry Bloxsome, LBF (aka ‘Living Between F**ks’) 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 (Griff the Invisible, Three Blind Mice), Bianca Chiminello (Dirty Sexy Money, Charmed) and Gracie Otto (Three Blind Mice), all driven by an all Australian indie soundtrack featuring the likes of Teenagers in Tokyo, Kids At Risk, Tennis, Fergus Brown, The Model School, Operator Please and Boy & Bear. A modern story of love, loss and desperation.

  • "...Munt’s approach is more concerned with conjuring a certain mood and tone than anything resembling a linear, narrative film. The success with which he uses the tools of cinema to that end is intermittent."
