50 YEARS OF PUNK ROCK
50 years after the British Punk explosion, this documentary follows four bands that are still active today and features interviews with Punk Rock luminaries in search for the meaning of Punk and the relevance of its message today.
Five decades after the explosive birth of British Punk which shook the foundations of music and culture, ‘Vive Le Punk’ dives headfirst into the raw, undying spirit of the movement that changed music - and society - forever... or did it? Featuring four iconic bands still rocking the stage today - Sham 69, 999, Ruts DC, and The Boys - the film chronicles their enduring legacy while showcasing their ongoing journeys in the modern era. Through exclusive interviews, candid conversations and behind-the-scenes access, we follow these punk pioneers and speak to a powerhouse lineup of Punk luminaries - Charlie Harper (UK Subs), Joe Corré (Punk entrepreneur and son of Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood), Dr. John Cooper Clarke (punk poet laureate), Gaye Advert (The Adverts) and author/DJ Chris Sullivan among others, who share their reflections on the movement's lasting impact. This film will appeal to every generation of rebels, misfits and outsiders. Punk may have started as anarchy in the streets, but it’s far from finished. Vive le Punk!
