Synopsis

Primarily a record of the Sex Pistols' first and last tour of America, in 1978, also a study of disintegration and self-destruction: Indeed, the nonmusical highlight is a truly harrowing interview with Sid Vicious and his girlfriend Nancy Spungen shortly before their deaths. Pistols off-stage and with the nonplussed and belligerent audiences while on stage. A document of British Punk at its most naked and powerful.
