synopsis

As the front man of The Clash from 1977 onwards, Joe Strummer changed people's lives forever. Drawing on both a shared punk history and the close personal friendship which developed over the last years of Joe's life, Julien Temple's film is a celebration of Joe Strummer - before, during and after The Clash. Temple wastes no time tracing Joe Strummer’s development from teen folkie to one of punk’s most inspiring agitators.
