  Radio Phoenix, a dodgy little Australian community radio station broadcasting in the 1960's, held together with gaffer tape, bad decisions, and a mostly inept voluntary crew who probably shouldn’t even be trusted with electricity!  
   
  At the helm is Mick, the self-appointed boss — a bloke who reckons the world owes him a living and runs the joint by rules he makes up as he goes.  
   
  Then it all goes pear-shaped - In a moment of absolute madness the station is accidentally burnt to the ground! 
   
  With the town-folk breathing down their necks rumours of alien visitations, and a hard deadline looming.  The race is on to get Radio Phoenix back on air before the locals completely lose the plot ... and their minds! 
   
  Armed with no money, no brains, bugger-all common sense, and a truckload of bad luck, the question isn’t how they’ll pull it off— or if they’ll torch what’s left of the town along with it?
