The title makes it sound like some cheesy science-fiction parody, but this is actually a fictionalized (though supposedly based on fact) account of the 1978 post“punk” scene that went down in Melbourne, Australia. The “plot” (and that’s used in the loosest sense of the term) revolves around a band called—you guessed it—Dogs In Space, fronted by real life INXS singer Michael Hutchence.
