Spike Island

May 1990, and for five teenagers from Manchester nothing matters more than one gig. Spike Island (2012) is a music comedy-drama you can watch online on iFILM, following a young band desperate to reach the Stone Roses' legendary outdoor show on Spike Island in Cheshire.

They've got their own band, a shared dream and a single night to pull it off. Along the way come fraying friendships, first love and a girl who complicates everything — played by Emilia Clarke before Game of Thrones made her a star. Director Mat Whitecross turns it into a love letter to the Madchester era and to the age when a song feels like the only thing that counts. Stream Spike Island online on iFILM.
