This documentary explores the unusual story of Wiz’s Weekender, a 1992 film that pushed boundaries and faced censorship for its provocative content. Initially banned by the BBC and ITV and given an 18 certificate, the film gained a devoted cult following over three decades. Filmmakers Tabitha Denholm and Adam Dunlop delve into the film's history, interviewing those involved to uncover its impact and enduring legacy within the creative community, as it approaches its thirtieth anniversary.
