Archiving Test Dept’s history from the 1983 performance in Canon Street Station through to the Second Coming in Glasgow, which was the most monumental and total show Test Dept produced. This show also could be said to have influenced part of Danny Boyle’s opening ceremony for the Olympic games in London in 2012.

This documentary shows the mindset of the some of the most original and influential artists of the experimental scene (Coil, Current 93, Foetus, Test Dept.). An unprecedented insight into the workings, the methods and the ideas that made these names legendary. Filmed in Hamburg, Amsterdam and London, 1985-1987.
