Tears For Fears produced one of the greatest albums from the new wave rock scene of the 1980s and with Songs from The Big Chair they defined the era. The Songs From the Big Chair album took the gothic synth-pop foundations of the band and combined them with arena-ready anthems leading to critical acclaim and the international hit singles Mothers Talk, Shout and Everybody Wants To Rule The World. With full cooperation of the band, this documentary explores how the album was recorded and the band left their indelible imprint on New Wave.
