Mon, 10 Aug 2026 08:57:40 +0000

In 1979, a quiet twenty-one-year-old completely rewrote the rules of popular music. Armed with a newly found synthesizer, Gary Numan went from experimenting with concrete blocks and gates to securing consecutive number-one albums. But overnight stardom brought a relentless onslaught from the media and a level of pressure that pushed him into a premature retirement at Wembley Arena. This documentary chronicles the decades-long journey of a true electronic music pioneer. We follow his raw battles with mental health, Asperger's, and the childhood trauma of heavy psychiatric medication. Supported by his family and fellow rock icons, Numan fought his way back from the brink of obscurity to reclaim his crown on the very stage he walked away from. It is a powerful narrative of resilience, artistic integrity, and the enduring power of family.
