 Synopsis

A documentary about music festival Sweetwaters. It follows the experiences of two groups: six teenagers (including actor Kate Elliott, then 17), and a group of thirty-somethings (many of them veterans of the eighties Sweetwaters festivals). The youngsters rave in the dance tent and the veterans argue there was more drinking and naked bodies back in the day. The documentary includes short clips of performers UB40, The Clean, Chris Knox, Stellar - and Elvis Costello, who drops the on-stage bomb that most of the artists haven't been paid.
