Plot summary
The movie presents various British rock bands with live clips and interviews.
Cast
Production
The band performances and interviews were filmed in late 1979 and early 1980. The Police were filmed in Miami on 1979-10-26. The VHS shows the Reggatta de Blanc part of Can't Stand Losing You and The Bed's Too Big Without You and a short interview at the airport.
Release
It seems that this movie was first shown on TV (May 1980) and then distributed on VHS 1980-12-15 (IMDB information). The movie was shown on German TV in two parts. A later DVD version called "Punk In England" shows most of the same material as the VHS, but sadly doesn't include The Police's bits.
There's also a 1990 VHS cassette from Japan re-titled "British New Wave 1980".
