Que Club was located within the grand setting of the Grade II-listed Methodist Central Hall, making it one the UK’s most impressive rave spots. Developers have now purchased the derelict building and plan to turn it into a hotel.

The film is being funded by a £42,000 lottery grant, and features former staff, punters, DJs, promoters and bands.

Music historian Jez Collis said: "This project will celebrate the pioneers of rave and dance culture in Birmingham and shine a light on a hidden history of Birmingham's music heritage and culture."
