The Prodigy will be making a feature-length documentary film about the band, directed by Paul Dugdale and written alongside Sam Bridger. The band calls it the ‘definitive’ documentary.

The film will tell the story of the Essex band who came together in the vortex of the late 80s UK rave scene. Success, worldwide fame, fortune, addiction, fighting and chaos almost tore them apart, but The Prodigy never stopped until Keith Flint’s tragic passing in March 2019.

Combining archive, animation and first-hand testimony from the key members of The Prodigy, the film will – and we quote here – “throw viewers headfirst into the full throttle, dangerous, dramatic and ultimately moving story of the most important electronic band of all time”.

Not sure if it was indeed the most important electronic band of all time, but it’s indeed something to look out for. More details soon.

Since you’re here …

… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.

If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
