As well as the usual fish ’n' chips day out, Hastings pier turned rock ’n' roll at night. From the 1950s to the 2000s, British pop royalty – Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, the Rolling Stones, The Who, The Kinks, T-Rex, The Sex Pistols and The Clash, plus superstar DJs Carl Cox, Jon Digweed and Sasha – played the ballroom.

BAFTA Award-winning director Archie Lauchlan moved to Hastings in 2006 and decided to start documenting the run-down, quirky pier. Two weeks later, it closed down, and in 2010 it was very nearly destroyed by fire. Through all this, and the community-led struggle to save and rebuild it, for 10 years he persevered and carried on documenting the Pier, all the way up to its reopening in 2016.

The film will be followed by director's Q and A and Sex Pistols after-party.

Part of Hastings' Own and 50 Years of Punk.
