Amoeba Music

In Britain 1966 recently expelled student, Carl has been sent by his mother to find some
direction in life by visiting his godfather, Quentin. However, Quentin is the boss of Radio
Rock, a pirate radio station in the middle of the North Sea, populated by an eclectic crew of
rock-and-roll deejays. Life on the North Sea is eventful. Carl discovers the opposite sex and
who his real father is. Meanwhile, pirate stations have come to the attention of government
minister Dormand, who is out for the blood of these lawbreakers. In an era when the stuffy
corridors of power stifle anything approaching youthful exuberance, Dormand seizes the
chance to score a political goal, and The Marine Broadcasting Offences Act is passed in an
effort to outlaw the pirates and to remove their ghastly influence from the land once and for
all. What results is a literal storm on the high seas. With Radio Rock in peril, its devoted
fans rally together and stage an epic Dunkirk-style hundred-boat rescue to save their deejay
heroes. Some things may come to an end, but rock and roll never dies.
