Summary of Radio On

Ripe for rediscovery, director Chris Petit's post-punk journey has become a cult film since its initial release and is one of the most striking feature debuts in British cinema. Produced by Wim Wenders and featuring one of Sting's earliest acting performances, RADIO ON is austere in narrative and captures the lurking disenchantment of the British youth movements of the time.

Stunningly photographed in luminous monochrome by Martin Schaefer (Wenders's brilliant cinematographer), and driven by a startling soundtrack (Bowie, Devo, Kraftwerk, Lene Lovich, Ian Dury, Wreckless Eric and more), Petit's anti-road movie "announced a directorial sensibility that was alien to British film." (Chris Darke, FILM COMMENT). Following a young man as he travels to Bristol to investigate the mysterious death of his brother, it offers a unique, compelling and even mythic vision of a late 1970s England, stalled between failed hopes of cultural and social change and the imminent upheavals of Thatcherism
