We were honoured when Don Letts wanted to make a film about us, and here it is …
“In a cultural climate that feels like punk never happened Strummerville serves as a timely reminder of a way forward. It worked back then and it can work again – and man it needs to!” – Don Letts.

Grammy-award winning filmmaker Don Letts talks about “Strummerville,” the documentary focusing on the charity that rose up in the aftermath of the death of Clash singer / guitarist Joe Strummer, during the film’s World Premiere at the 2010 SXSW Film Festival.
Letts also talks about his work as the first house DJ at the Roxy in London, which helped influence the Ska and Punk movements producing bands like the Clash and the Sex Pistols.
