Dance Craze: Documentary Resurrects the British Ska Scene

In the late '70s, a wave of young British musicians who had grown up listening to Jamaican music combined influences of that ska, reggae and rocksteady music with the punk and new wave sounds that were taking over the music scene at the time. The result was 2 Tone, a music genre that represented the second wave of ska and became a hit in dance clubs. Dance Craze is a live concert documentary that captures the best of the genre, lighting up the screen with songs like "Nite Klub," "One Step Beyond," "Too Much Pressure" and "Mirror in the Bathroom" performed by The Specials, Madness, The Selecter, The (English) Beat, Bad Manners and others as they whip audiences into a sweat across the U.K. Stick around after the film for a discussion with cinematographer Joe Dunton.
