Overview

DOG WHISTLE is a mockumentary that follows the rise and eventual fall of an ambitious student documentary project. Compelled by rumours that a small right-wing political club is planning a racially motivated political demonstration on campus, a student documentary crew make a plan to uncover the insidious inner-workings of the Conservative Australian Men’s Party (C.A.M.P). However, while student director, Matt, sets out with a clear directorial vision, when he arrives to meet the club members for the first time and realises that he not only recognises the club’scharismatic President Jack, but knows him from a brief but heated encounter a few years prior, he suddenly becomes entangled in web of lies and the film suffers.
