The acid house parties in the disused mills and warehouses of recession hit Margret Thacher's Britain were a reaction to mass unemployment and a government that wanted to appear tough on law and order. A story of northern idealism, community, police brutality, false imprisonment and the biggest mass arrest in British post war history. All set to a thumping music track of the biggest warehouse tunes of the time.
