A story of peace, sensuality, spirituality, ancient ways of life and new ways of living interwoven with tales of brutal occupation, a spirit of tolerance and the lives of many colourful characters, irresistibly drawn to Ibiza.
From explosive beginnings, hewn from two continents, the story of this extraordinary, magical island is told by British filmmaker Julien Temple with a soundtrack by Fatboy Slim. Ibiza has exerted extraordinary influence over ancient civilisations, music and popular culture throughout the centuries.
Drawing to its shores refugees from Franco’s Civil War and Nazi oppression who paved the way for the early hippy beat paradise of the ‘50’s, which in turn gave rise to the increasing dominance of the commercial world that now drives the ever growing annual invasion of wealthy socialites, gentrifying the island in the name of progress.
