En 1976, quatre jeunes hommes issus de la post-industrielle Manchester se rendent à un concert des Sex Pistols. Fortement inspirés par ce show auquel ils ont assisté, ils décident de monter un groupe, Joy Division. Près de 30 ans plus tard, malgré une tragédie qui les a arrêtés dans leur élan, Joy Division connaît un succès et une influence plus grande que jamais. Leur héritage résonne tout particulièrement dans une industrie musicale actuelle carriériste et une culture pop surmédiatisée. Grâce à des interviews des membres survivants du groupe, aujourd'hui réunis sous le nom de New Order, et à des archives inédites, Joy Division se fait la chronique d'un changement social et politique en Angleterre et nous entraîne dans l'histoire de ces quatre hommes, qui ont transcendé les barrières économiques et culturelles pour produire une musique atemporelle.

On y retrouve le jeune Maurice Martenot, alors télégraphiste, qui en 1918 imagine un instrument capable de transformer les particules électriques en ondes musicales. Une décennie plus tard, en 1928 à Paris, l'instrument est breveté, les ondes Martenot font leur entrée à l'Opéra . L'histoire prend alors son envol... nous suivons dans ce film l'évolution des ondes musicales et de ses protagonistes. À travers l'engagement de ces derniers, les compositions dédiées, les arrangements spéciaux, se dresse un regard sur la place qu'a occupé et occupe encore cet instrument dans le lien évolutif entre la musique, les arts, la science, les technologies et la sensibilité humaine.
