9:00pm Saturday 23 August

Dir: Sam Dunn & Scot McFadyen
Canada 2008 93mins
 Metal fan and anthropologist Sam Dunn explores the underbelly of the world’s emerging extreme music scenes. From Indonesian death metal to Chinese black metal to Iranian thrash metal, this documentary reveals a worldwide community of metalheads who aren’t just absorbing metal from the West – they’re transforming it, creating a new form of cultural expression in societies dominated by conflict, corruption and mass-consumerism.

From the makers of Metal: A Headbanger’s Journey. Presented by the MRC and Big Star Records.

Please note due to a scheduling conflict, the screening of Global Metal on Friday August 22 will be delayed by 20 minutes. We apologise for any inconvenience.
