    Hauntingly beautiful documentary

    A hauntingly beautiful account of the rise of the band Joy Division. As a half-interested fan, I expected not to be too impressed, but I was completely drawn in and mesmerised by the story. As others have noted, it makes a perfect companion piece to 'Control'. Definitely recommended for anyone who has ever heard and enjoyed a Joy Division song.
