Description

British comedy drama which follows the life of Factory Records boss Tony Wilson (Steve Coogan). After attending an early concert by the Sex Pistols at a dingy Manchester venue in 1976, Wilson is inspired to showcase the band and other punk acts on a local television station. Despite a number of obstacles, Wilson goes on to open The Hacienda nightclub before starting Factory Records, which soon becomes the home of popular local bands such as Joy Division, New Order and the Happy Mondays.

However, despite some early success, both The Hacienda and Factory begin losing money as Wilson struggles to maintain control of the business.
