The inspirational story of how a group of working class kids growing up in post-industrial Glasgow dared to dream. Those kids became Simple Minds, the most iconic and influential Scottish band in history.

Hidden hand events - including the punk explosion, the emergence of MTV and the impact of Live Aid - appeared out of nowhere to propel Simple Minds, not only into its existence and on to global success, but also to reboot the band.

At the very heart of Simple Minds dwells the ongoing friendship between Jim Kerr and his songwriting partner Charlie Burchill. The pair met in the shadow of a brand new Glasgow council tower block in 1967 and subsequently forged a relationship that changed both their lives in a way that neither of them could ever have imagined.

Everything Is Possible is a music-inspired human interest story imbued with social history, politics and activism. It features previously unseen family and band archive along with iconic footage from Live Aid and the Mandela 70th Birthday Tribute, and is set to Simple Minds’ cinematic songbook of hits and rarities, including I Travel, Someone, Somewhere in Summertime, Promised You a Miracle and Don’t You (Forget About Me), Alive and Kicking, Belfast Child and Mandela Day.

Alongside a series of intimate interviews with Jim and Charlie, the film features contributions from Jimmy Iovine, Bob Geldof, Molly Ringwald, Bobby Gillespie, Dave Gahan, Irvine Welsh, Sharleen Spiteri, Richard Branson, Mariella Frostrup, Muriel Gray, Jerry Dammers, Trevor Horn, Mel Gaynor and James Dean Bradfield.
