A cinematic tribute to a pivotal moment in music history, "Under the Volcano" (2021) tells the story of George Martin's AIR Studios Montserrat, the Caribbean island that catapulted 1980s pop into the stratosphere. This documentary film features archival footage and interviews with legendary musicians like Sting, Nick Rhodes, Jimmy Buffett, and more, as it chronicles a decade of iconic recordings at this state-of-the-art studio, including classics by The Police, Dire Straits, and Elton John.
