Eddie Martin is an Australian documentary director who shot to cult fame with his visceral 2005 documentary, Jisoe, about a Melbourne graffiti artist; some of his films since have included All This Mayhem, Have You Seen The Listers? and The Kids. The Kids revisits the cast of Larry Clarks cult 1995 film Kids, and is playing at Sydney Film Festival this year.
In this Zoom chat me and Eddie discussed his background in the Melbourne skate scene and how he wanted to explore the alternative narrative behind Kids.
