Strikebound is a 1984 Australian film directed by Richard Lowenstein and based on the Wendy Lowenstein novel" Dead Men Do n't Dig Coal". " Strikebound" is the dramatised story of a coal- miners' strike in 1930s Australia, in the small south Gippsland town of Korumburra. The story is told through the struggles of Agnes and Wattie Doig, two Scottish immigrants, who were real people. <SEP> Richard Lowenstein( born 1 March 1959) is an Australian film- maker. He has written, produced and directed: feature films, including" Strikebound"( 1984)," Dogs in Space"( 1986) and" He Died with a Felafel in His Hand"( 2001); music videos for bands such as INXS and U2; concert performance films,( 1987) and" U2: LoveTown"( 1989); and TV adverts. <SEP> His most distinctive quality is his penchant for recreating the look and style of silent or early- sound- era films. Since completing his first film in 1985, Maddin has become one of Canada's most well- known and celebrated filmmakers. Maddin has directed twelve feature films and numerous short films, in addition to publishing three books and creating a host of installation art projects. Guy Maddin,( born February 28, 1956) is a Canadian screenwriter, director, author, cinematographer, and film editor of both features and short films, as well as an installation artist, from Winnipeg, Manitoba. A number of Maddin's recent films began as or developed from installation art projects, and his books also relate to his film work. Maddin has been the subject of much critical praise and academic attention, including two books of interviews with Maddin and two book- length academic studies of his work. Maddin was appointed to the Order of Canada, the country's highest civilian honour, in 2012. Maddin was Visiting Lecturer on Visual and Environmental Studies, 2015 – 16, at Harvard University. <SEP> Set on an island paradise, the film depicts a group of men who become caught up in a homoerotic apparent orgy of slapping after an older man( Louis Negin) warns them not to slap each other while he is away on an errand to buy condoms. The film's cast includes Noam Gonick, Caelum Vatnsdal, Simon Hughes, Michael Powell, John K. Samson, Leith Clark, David Lewis, Don Hewak and Kenny Omega. The film was first created in 1994, but the original print was lost. Maddin then recreated a new version in 2004, when he was commissioned to create several short films for Bravo as an advance promotional tie- in to his forthcoming feature film" The Saddest Music in the World". The film was named for a game Vatnsdal frequently played with his friends, whose rules required them to attempt to slap each other while keeping their elbows locked to their sides to limit their range of motion. The film was included on the DVD release of" The Saddest Music in the World", and was selected by John Waters for television broadcast on his film anthology series" John Waters Presents Movies That Will Corrupt You" in 2006. Sissy Boy Slap Party is a Canadian experimental short film directed by Guy Maddin. It was later added to the Vimeo platform.
