The Beat is The Law

is a film project documenting end-of-the-century British music and culture seen through the eyes of Jarvis Cocker, Richard Hawley and other Sheffield natives as these post-punk musicians journey through Thatcher’s politically charged 80’s and,by accident or design, dramatically end up at the epicentre of Dance and Britpop.
Featuring Jarvis Cocker (Pulp), Richard Hawley (Treebound Story/Longpigs), Mark Brydon (Chakk/FON/Moloko), Rob Gordon (FON/WARP), Adi Newton (Clock DVA) and many more.

The Beat is The Law (80’s  Special) focuses on the first part of these musicians’ journey. The film had its world premiere screening on November 5th 2009 at the Doc/Fest  Sheffield.
