As Julie Mac and her gang of Sharpies fight their way through their turbulent teenage years, Julie reflects on the unexpected bond between herself and the Italian tailor who crafts her iconic ‘Connie’ cardigan; a symbol that will firmly establish her within the Sharpie subculture and strengthen her sense of identity. RAGE is a snapshot of the Sharpie subculture in 1970s Melbourne, a time when running from the cops, avoiding the ticket inspectors, drinking, spewing and rooting were all in a night's work. Inspired by the book RAGE: A Sharpie's Journal, Melbourne 1974 - 1980 by Julie Mac.
