Shoplifters of the World (region-1 DVD)

In the Summer of 1987, four friends, reeling from the sudden break-up of the iconic British band The Smiths, embark on a night out of partying to mourn their musical loss. At the same time, an impassioned Smiths fan takes a local radio DJ hostage at gunpoint and forces him to play nothing but Smiths tracks. With the radio station playing as the soundtrack to their night, the friends go on a wild journey of self-discovery that will transform them forever. Featuring an incredible soundtrack - including 20 songs from The Smiths - Shoplifters of the World is a glorious ode to the craziness of the '80s and the power of music to change people's lives. Directed by Stephen Kijak who brought us the now iconic music documentaries such as We Are X, Stones on Exile, Sid and Judy and one of the best of the last two decades...Scott Walker: 30 Century Man.
