After a successful premiere at SXSW, “RED DOG” will be releasing on demand, January 7.
Award-winning songwriter Luke Dick spent his childhood in a strip club.
The documentary tells the untold story of the infamous topless bar, Red Dog in Oklahoma City during the oil boom.
During the 1970s oil boom, the Red Dog was the rowdiest and most popular strip club in Oklahoma City, and for five years it was the only home and family Luke and his mom had.
She was a teenage runaway, dope-addicted single mother, stripping with a fake I.D., and he grew up amidst the drugs, the danger, and the never-ending party.
Now 30 years later, Luke has a toddler and a newborn of his own.
As he began asking his mom questions about his own childhood- and what she was thinking letting a kid run around in that place- she turns out to be more hilariously frank than he ever imagined.
So he traveled back to OKC to find these people he thought of as uncles and aunts, cousins and dads, to see who made it out and who never did, and try to figure out how they somehow made a family out of all that madness.
“RED DOG” was directed by singer-songwriter, Luke Dick and Casey Pinkston.
