Shot on vivid 16mm film over a three-year period, ANONYMOUS CLUB chronicles notoriously shy, Melbourne-based musician Courtney Barnett's ups and downs on the world tour for her album Tell Me How You Really Feel. Featuring Barnett's unguarded narration from her audio diary, recorded on a dictaphone provided by filmmaker Danny Cohen, the film delivers frank and unprecedented insight into Barnett's creative process, the sacrifices and inner conflicts set in motion by fame, and the sometimes dark backdrop to her whimsical, relatably poetic compositions.

Critics Consensus

Although it skims the surface of some of its most intriguing themes, Anonymous Club is a stirring tribute to art's healing power.

Wendy Ide

Observer (UK)

While the film is not particularly groundbreaking in its approach to the music documentary, it’s unusually candid and open in what it reveals about the cost of the creative process.

Rated: 3/5

The reclusive Brit-and-Grammy nominee is gradually coaxed from the shadows during the course of this stylised 16mm anti-rock-doc.

Chicago Reader

What this quiet little movie does is let us hang on the couch with her for a bit before and after she hits the stage. Feels just right...

Alastair McKay

Scotsman

Though it’ll mean more to fans than casual listeners, the way the film juxtaposes her [Courtney Barnett's] innermost thoughts with the promotional demands that come with releasing music that really connects with people is fascinating to watch.

Rated: 3/5

Ryan Syrek

The Reader (Omaha, NE)

The whole thing plays like a stream of consciousness meditation on the responsibilities of stardom, the imperfectness of advocates, and damn good music.

Rated: B

Kelli Ebensberger

Bust Magazine

Serving as a meditation on loneliness, expectations, and the existential dread brought about by the climate crisis -- specifically the Australian bush fires of 2019 and 2020 -- this film resonates beyond music preferences.
