The Hardest Line tells the story of Midnight Oil – trailblazing, contrary, passionate, outspoken – on film for the first time. Across their 45-year career, “The Oils” helped shape modern Australia with anthems including “US Forces”, “Beds Are Burning”, “Blue Sky Mine” and “Redneck Wonderland”. Featuring previously unreleased interviews with every band member, live and studio footage, and signature moments including the band’s outback tour with Warumpi Band, their Exxon protest gig in New York and their famous “Sorry” suits at the Sydney Olympics, this film traces the singular journey of Australia’s quintessential rock band.

Director Paul Clarke, Australia, 2024, 105 mins
