Plots(1)
It’s 1966 - pop music’s finest era - and a bunch of ramshackle DJs play rock & pop 24 hours a day broadcasting from Radio Rock, an infamous pirate ship in North Sea. On board arrives 18 year old Carl, who is instantly plunged into a series of hilarious and life-changing adventures and misadventures. His mother thought the boat would straighten him out - a spectacular mistake! (Universal Pictures UK)
