⚡JOIN THE THUNDER – HELP BRING THIS FILM TO LIFE⚡

Our friend .g.brown has been working for over three years capturing something incredible — the story of Ultimate Thunder, a Leeds-based rock band like no other.
Six members, five with learning disabilities, Down syndrome or autism — together they’ve built something raw, loud and unstoppable.

Ben has filmed over 100 hours of footage, all as an unfunded passion project, and now he’s crowdfunding to finish the film and share it with the world.

🎬 This isn’t just a film about music — it’s about creativity, friendship, and proving that art has no limits.
It’s a DIY, heartfelt story told with the band, not about them.

The team are now raising £20,000 to complete the final edit, post-production, music, animation, and screenings — so this powerful story can reach audiences everywhere.

If you believe in community, creativity, and representation, please take a look and support if you can.
💥 Every share, donation, and bit of noise helps!

ULTIMATE CROWDFUNDER! WE NEED YOUR HELP TO FINISH THIS DOCUMENTARY!

RAW, LOUD AND FULL OF HEART. Six musicians. Five with learning disabilities, Down syndrome or autism. Together, they’ve built Ultimate Thunder — a band hailed by The Guardian as “the most punk rock band in Britain.”

For the past 3 years, filmmaker Ben G. Brown has followed their incredible journey, unfunded:
🎸 From pub gigs to major festivals
🎸 From being on the brink of splitting up to playing huge festivals
🎸 From setbacks, surgeries and lost voices to national TV appearances

Now their story is becoming a feature documentary — but we need YOUR help to finish it.
We’re crowdfunding to cover post-production: editing, sound, colour grading, music licensing, festival submissions and much more.

Every donation helps give this inspiring, rebellious story the platform it deserves.

This isn’t just about music. It’s about friendship, resilience, creativity and the power of community. Together, we can shine a light on artists who are too often overlooked — and show the world what unstoppable really looks like.

We know how difficult it is in the current climate so we appreciate anything you might be able to give.

Be part of the Thunder. Be part of the change. THANK YOU ⚡
