footage of and interviews with the Specials, the Selecter,
Madness, the Pretenders, Sex Pistols, the Jam, the Kinks, the

This insightful documentary by filmmaker Wolfgang Buld attempts
to uncover the origins of the punk rock at the very point where
it was about to explode onto the American music scene. Digging

offers a rare glimpse into a musical revolution.
