This brand new documentary, in association with ITN archive, charts the fall and rise of Sid Vicious from punk's hero to society's cultural icon of the twentieth century. Sid's short and controversial life is profiled with interviews from Jah Wobble (childhood friend, founder PIL), Steve Severin (Siouxsie and the Banshees), David Vanian (The Damned), Malcolm McLaren (Sex Pistols Manager), Viv Albertine (flatmate, the Slits), Ron Watts (100 Club), Glen Matlock (Sex Pistol), Rat Scabies (The Damned), Caroline Coon (writer and artist), Vivienne Westwood (sex designer), Marco Pirroni (Adam and the Ants), John Tiberi (Sex Pistols tour manager), and many more of Sid's close friends. Featuring previously unseen archive footage and filmed in HD, this new documentary provides the most definitive and intimate life story of the punk hero who truly lived his life with chaos and anarchy.
