The Meat and Onions Gang

Mari Shibata, 2012 | British Film Institute (United Kingdom)

The Meat and Onions Gang by Mari Shibata (1986), UK, profiles a group of independant working class musicians from London, fed up with David Cameron's coalition government. With an ethos resembling the punk scene under Margaret Thatcher's government in the 1970s, we follow frontman Danny Onion's journey in creating a musical voice for London's working class community who cannot afford the money or time for political activism.
