The documentary Punk's Not Dead has added a few more premiere dates at some international film festivals. The film was recently shown to a sell out crowd at the Melbourne International Film Festival and is now scheduled to run at the following:

In-Edit Film Festival in Barcelona (October 26-November 2)
Copenhagen International Documentary Film Festival (November 10-19)
Gijon Film Festival in Spain (November 23-December 1)

According to the official website, the film will be distributed worldwide, even if a larger studio does not pick it up and the distribution has to be handled independently. Plans have also been made to release the film on DVD.

As previously reported, the documentary focuses on the past 30 years in punk rock, with the social impact it has shown on everything from the orginal counter-culture, through its marketable image of today. The cast consists of a wide variety of bands, labels and personalities; providing both interviews and performances. Current stars like Green Day, Good Charlotte and Yellowcard; punk staples such as Bad Religion, Pennywise, Rancid and the Casualties; and pioneers like the Ramones, Minor Threat and the Dead Kennedys are just some of groups featured in the presentation.
