One Nine Nine Four is a documentary film written and directed by Jai Al-Attas, "exploring the birth, growth and eventual tipping point of punk rock during the 90's" and produced by the independent Australian company Robot Academy Films.[1] The bulk of the film's content consists of band interviews and archive footage.[2] The film was screened once at the Calgary International Film Festival on September, 29th.[3]

The film is narrated by skateboarder Tony Hawk and features interviews and footage of various bands and figures in the punk scene including Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day, Dexter Holland from The Offspring, Greg Graffin and Brett Gurewitz from Bad Religion, Tim Armstrong from Rancid and Fat Mike from NOFX. Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge from Blink-182 also appear in the film.[1]

Music clearances fees have prevented the producer from legally releasing the film; it has only been screened once, at the Calgary Internation Film Festival. The filmmakers have turned to fund raising in order to release it publicly.
