Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll is the new film of the IAN DURY story starring Andy Serkis in the role of the punk legend. The film follows the rise to fame of IAN DURY following a personal battle with the debilitating disease polio, and the after effects of fame on his relationships . The title of the film is derived from the classic 1977 hit and the phrase that it spawned - "Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll".

After years of slogging around the pub circuit, Ian Dury (Andy Serkis) ditches his band and forms the Blockheads to critical and commercial acclaim, but his sudden escalating success has a profound and damaging effect on those around him, not least his son, Baxter.
