Nick Moran, UK, 2009, 110 min

Set against a backdrop of early 60's London, Telstar is the story of the world's first independent record producer, Joe Meek, a gay, amphetamine addicted, talented but deeply troubled soul. A maverick genius who enjoyed phenomenal early success with Telstar - the biggest selling record of its time - before bad luck, depression, heartbreak and paranoia forced him into murder and suicide. Far from being a maudlin tale, this stranger than fiction true story is a satirical comic drama revealing the many sides of Joe Meek, a truly hyperactive, loud and inventive portrait of a pioneer in the field of popular music. The brilliant cast includes Con O’Neill, Kevin Spacey, and JJ Fields.
