Radio Pirates
Radio Pirates
2009, English. Directed by Craig Newland.
It's 1965 and rock music is shaking up the world but not in Auckland, New Zealand. One man's determination will challenge, inspire and lead a bunch of rebel deejay's into an un-chartered political nightmare. A boat called the Tiri will be their freedom, broadcasting from international waters to avoid prosecution. Based on a true story, a bold bid to free the airwaves and bring rock n' roll to the people.
