The late 1980s in the UK saw the birth of a new culture, they called it Acid House. Driven by a media hate campaign, the British Government acted against it by pushing a bill through Parliament that would outlaw the illegal Acid House parties and by spending millions funding a special Police unit whose sole purpose was to crush this new movement. Featuring unique archive film from the time and interviews with the world's top DJs.
