Keith Levene's London 1976!

Synopsis

At age 17 the legendary British guitarist Keith Levene was a founder member of the Clash. He recruited Joe Strummer, wrote one of the band's early hits, played at all their early live shows including one in which he posited the idea to his future collaborator John Lydon to start PiL, then agreed to leave the Clash before his 18th birthday. Set against the emerging first wave of British punk in West London, this is Keith's story.

Two guys on a journey to keep the cameras rolling for 24 hours in East London with no plans of what, or who, they will capture. What ensues is a film that is immediately caught in the tension of contradictions, the cities dizzying highs and bottomless lows immediately visible under the same microscope slide. Displaying London’s unique brand of unbridled chaos, alongside the soul-crushing melancholy of the city, in a haunting, deeply affecting, and hilarious way.
