Trailer for the documentary Persecution Blues: The Battle for the Tote.
In 2010, the iconic Tote Hotel - last bastion of Melbourne's vibrant music counterculture - was forced to close by unfair laws. Filmed over 7 years, "Persecution Blues" depicts the struggle of more than 20,000 fans - and the bands who inspire them - to preserve their history and protect their future, and puts the audience on the front line of an epic-scale culture war.
