MIDAS MAN is the first, last and most respectful filmic portrait ever painted of Brian Epstein. From an original story, MIDAS MAN tells the personal tale of a man who struggled to find his place in the world. Brian Epstein is recognised today as the man who signed amongst others; The Beatles, Gerry and The Pacemakers, Cilla Black, Billy J Kramer and The Dakotas and in doing so, created the blueprint for music artist management.

MIDAS MAN charts Brian’s life, from his formative years to wild, unprecedented global success and the ensuing chaos as he managed and promoted some of the biggest acts in the world.

The film explores the close relationships with his family and friends and his lifelong search for love. It brings to life an extraordinary period of cultural change and adds depth to an untold story of one of the world’s most significant outsiders. Brian Epstein lived a thousand lives in a few short years.
