Roger, playing drums with Sheffield post-punk band The Box, gets to visit the city of Prague in the former Czechoslovakia, and plays a secret gig. Along the way he meets rebels, students, rock 'n' rollers and artists, all trying to express themselves as individuals while living under an oppressive regime.

Roger goes to the Octagon Centre for the second time, to cheer on and take snaps of his friends in Cabaret Voltaire, who are promoting their recently released new album 'The Crackdown'.

Having signed to Some Bizarre / Virgin Records, the Cabs pull out of the stops to impress their hard-to-please home town audience.
