Synopsis

Mordant Music spent eight months re-scoring a collection of public information films and documentary shorts produced by the Central Office of Information in the 1970s and 1980s. Commissioned by the BFI, the project reflects the gradual impact of these films on the national psyche. With aesthetic influences from Mark Leckey's 'Fiorucci Made Me Hardcore' and Chris Morris's 'Look Around You', 'MisinForMation' presents a unique blend of sound and imagery, evoking a bygone era. The film runs for 101 minutes.
