The Yellow Peril (Code Yellow – Elevated Risk of Terrorist Attack)

In a society paralysed by fear of imminent terrorist attacks the airwaves crackle with bigotry and bile. Three Melbourne teenagers turn from their drug fueled hedonism toward exposing those sowing the seeds of confusion and suspicion.

The Yellow Peril is a cautionary tale of religious fundamentalism, media manipulation and the importance of keeping your pants on when climbing a crane.

Citizen Corps (Code Orange – High Risk of Terrorist Attack)

In a spectacular display of irony, Citizen Corps, ‘the safest neighbourhood on earth’, is wiped out by some totally evil dudes. Witness the hilarious fallout as citizens rush to arm themselves, police shoot at anything swarthy, and a humble possum emerges as the master architect of terrorist horror!

A savage satire on the politics of war, torture and racism, Citizen Corps is an anarchic black comedy about a culture in fear.
