From Lemmy filmmaker Wes Orshoski comes the story of the long-ignored pioneers of punk: The Damned, the first UK punks on wax and the first to cross the Atlantic. This new film charts the band’s complex history, leading up to the celebration of their 35th anniversary in 2011. Covering battles with cancer and members striking out, the film features testimonies from the many characters from the band’s past, including Chrissie Hynde, Lemmy, Pink Floyd and more.
Following the screening, director Wes Orshoski will be in conversation with BBC broadcaster Vic Galloway.
