The MAG will screen The Damned: Don't You Wish That We Were Dead (Wes Orshoski, 2015) as part of the Alternative Music Film Series.

From "Lemmy" filmmaker Wes Orshoski comes the story of the long-ignored pioneers of punk—The Damned, the first U.K. punks on wax and the first to cross the Atlantic. Shot around the globe over three years, the film captures the band as it celebrated its 35th anniversary with a world tour and finds some estranged former members striking out on their own while others battle cancer. Included are appearances from Chrissie Hynde, Mick Jones (The Clash), Lemmy and members of Pink Floyd, Black Flag, Guns 'n' Roses, the Sex Pistols, Blondie and Buzzcocks.
