In this science-fiction musical set in a future Australia, a scheme to blow up the Sydney Opera House is discovered. And the only way to prevent it is to send someone back in time to a point before the plot was even hatched...
'In 1989, director Gary Keady made what is perhaps Australia’s only sci-fi musical with Sons of Steel.
'For thirty years, the futuristic Australian heavy metal odyssey Sons Of Steel seemed relegated to the lower circles of cinema’s purgatory. But the defiant story of cocksure heavy metal frontman Black Alice, who is inadvertently sent on a tour-of-duty through time to save Sydney from nuclear holocaust, is finally gaining traction and threatening to become the cult film that it always deserved to be.'
