UK PREMIERE
A provocative, chaotic and impossibly fun look at one of music’s most groundbreaking bands. An intimate portrait of Culture Club’s rise to fame, dramatic split, and remarkable reunion for the film. For the first time, Boy George, Roy Hay, Mikey Craig and Jon Moss come together to share their story, offering candid insights into their creative process and personal relationships, and the band’s towering cultural impact. Set against the backdrop of 1980s Britain, the documentary explores how four young men formed a multi-racial, ethnically diverse and sexually liberated band with a style and sound that challenged the status quo during the era of New Romantics and Margaret Thatcher. At the heart of the documentary lies the love story between Boy George and Jon Moss, which not only inspired some of the band’s biggest hits, but also contributed to Culture Club’s eventual breakup. Drawing on both unprecedented access to the band members and extensive archival footage, the film examines everything from their innovative songwriting process and global success to their boundary-pushing fashion choices and fiery inter-band dynamics.
