Chris Petty's niche film Radio, created in 1979, is one of the most distinctive debut films in British film history. he combines avant-garde and mysterious stories with existential road films. at the same time, it also fills the whole film with a grotesque reproduction of the British landscape and climate. Martin Shafei, Vimwendes's photography assistant, completed a wonderful black-and-white photography. David Bowie, Power Station, Lenelovich, Ian Dooley, Wreckless Eric, Robert Flip and Devo added a wonderful New Wave movie soundtrack to Radio, which also showed Sting's early on-screen performances. The film tells the story of a young London DJ (played by David Beamis) driving to Bristol to investigate the mysterious death of his brother. "Radio" shows the audience a unique and charming, but also with the mysterious appearance of England in the 1970s. England in the 1970s has been struggling with the hope and disappointment of social and cultural change, waiting for Margaret Thatcher to carry out the storm of innovation.
