Event Description
This month, celebrate the beginning of some warmer weather with a poetic homage to Australia’s early surf-culture.
'You Should Have Been Here Yesterday' combines hundreds of hours of lovingly restored 16mm footage with an original soundtrack by Australian music collective, Headland. This cinematic poem tells the story of a wild community who took off up the coast and discovered a whole new way to live. Featuring interviews with surf icons Albe Falzon, Paul Witzig, Dick Hoole, Tim Winton, Wayne Lynch, Bob McTavish, Albe Falzon, Evelyn Rich, Maurice Cole and many more.
Watch and enjoy a free screening in the comfort of Melton Library. After the session, we can also show you how to stream even more documentaries and films from home using your library card, absolutely free.
