Everybody in the Place: an Incomplete History of Britain 1984-1992 is a documentary about the role society and politics played in creating the UK acid house music scene.

From the BBC synopsis:

We see how rave culture owes as much to the Battle of Orgreave and the underground gay clubs of Chicago as it does to shifts in musical style: not merely a cultural gesture, but the fulcrum for a generational shift in British identity, linking industrial histories and radical action to the wider expanses of a post-industrial future.
