Tim MacKenzie-Smith directs this documentary about British band Cymande. Formed in south London in the early 1970s, their music fused jazz, funk and soul and their talent was recognised in America where they became the first British band to headline the Apollo Theatre in New York. However, in Britain they fell into obscurity and disbanded in 1975, but when their music was sampled by hip-hop DJs and rap artists in the 1980s and 90s, they found a new generation of fans and ultimately reformed after nearly four decades.
