Plot summary
Four years after Joe Strummer died, a documentary looks back at his life. From 1977 he was the front man of the Clash, the punk band from Britain. Archive film and spoken clips from interviews with him and with other people tell the story, and Clash members and other people from music and film are among those heard. The soundtrack mixes the recordings of his several groups, among them Clash tracks that are rare or had not come out before, with songs by other artists that Strummer introduced on London Calling, his BBC World radio program, between 1999 and 2002. The account covers the years on either side of the Clash as well as the band itself.
