Electronic Body Movie is the first feature documentary film ever made about Electronic Body Music (EBM). The film takes viewers back to the early 1980s of industrial music in Germany and Belgium, during the era of post-punk and Neue Deutsche Welle.

EBM was the hot new music style based on thumping beats, aggressive vocals and sequenced synth bass lines. The adrenaline-filled live shows, controversial lyrics and provocative looks associated with the genre often shocked the music press and fuelled the audience's imagination, leaving a burning mark on the hearts and minds of the genre’s fans.

Now, four decades later, EBM still has a big impact on techno and modern clubbing music. A wide and devoted fan community from all around the globe keeps its cult alive, organising regular festivals and events. The documentary offers a unique journey into EBM’s iconic sound, showcasing rare archive videos, unreleased live footage and exclusive interviews with the genre’s trailblazers, including DAF, Front 242, and Liaisons Dangereuses.
