Just hit play and let Jaz happen.

Yes, we — The Gathering — are all versed on the minutia of Killing Joke, so perhaps the surprises and anecdotes (Iceland, the Pyramids, the Island, the rituals) won’t be news to us, but I’d imagine the main crux of the film is to explain the significance of the band to people who may not know that much about them.
