For 15-year-old Joe Martin, growing up on the outskirts of West London, the summer of 1977 means punk rock, disco girls, stolen cars, social-club lager, Teddy Boys and a job with gypsies. Life is sweet - until he is attacked by a gang and thrown into the Grand Union Canal with his best friend Smiles. Fast forward to 1988, and Joe is travelling home after three years away, coming to terms with tragedy. Fast forward to 2000, and life is sweet once more. Human Punk is the story of punk, common bonds and a shared culture - sticking the boot in, sticking together.
