SPIKE ISLAND is a coming-of-age story about a wannabe rock band in Manchester, England, who hatch a plan to hand-deliver their demo tape to their idols, The Stone Roses, at the band's impending gig at Spike Island. But when their tickets fail to materialize, the gang embarks on a road trip to the concert and is forced to take extreme measures to sneak their way in! Along the way, friendships are tested and their futures are shaped -- together or apart.

“We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to bring SPIKE ISLAND to audiences across North America,” said Andreas Olavarria, President of Level 33 Entertainment. “The movie is filled with youthful energy, great music and terrific performances that are sure to entertain a broad range of filmgoers – especially fans of The Stone Roses and of Emilia Clarke, who plays a very different role from her well known character in HBO’s Game Of Thrones.”
