"An astonishing film" - Time Out.
A British road movie, following solitary, self-absorbed radio DJ Robert from London to Bristol to try and uncover the true facts about his brother's suicide. He encounters a range of characters including a guitar-playing Eddie Cochran fan (Sting) at a filling station, an army deserter who refuses to return to Northern Ireland and a woman in search of her child.
RADIO ON is a rich and rare example of mythic British cinema.
