Control is a 2007 British-American biographical film about the life of Ian Curtis, singer of the late-1970s English post-punk band Joy Division. It is the first feature film directed by Anton Corbijn, who had worked with Joy Division as a photographer. The screenplay by Matt Greenhalgh was based on the biography Touching from a Distance by Curtis' widow Deborah, who served as a co-producer on the film. Tony Wilson, who released Joy Division's records through his Factory Records label, also served as a co-producer. Curtis' bandmates Bernard Sumner, Peter Hook, and Stephen Morris provided incidental music for the soundtrack via their post-Joy Division incarnation New Order. Control was filmed partly on location in Nottingham, Manchester, and Macclesfield, including areas where Curtis lived, and was shot in colour and then printed to black-and-white. Its title comes from the Joy Division song "She's Lost Control", and the fact that much of the plot deals with the notion that Curtis tried to remain so in control of his own life, and yet had no control over his epilepsy and pharmaceutical side effects.

Plot: Our relationship to the land is expressed as a constant and unwavering cut through the passive soil. Tolerant of our intimate exploitation, the land absorbs our manipulation willingly. Tragically, it is through our resolute abuse, disguised as seemingly dutiful and beautiful human intervention, that an irreparable scar is at last exposed. SYSTEMATIC COLLAPSE is a ten minute film shot with three cameras positioned above, beside and beneath a vessel filled with seeds. The seeds are continuously and consistently divided with a blade. As this act is performed the cuts are simultaneously traced on the underside of the skin which holds them suspended above the lower camera. The film documents the systematic cuts as they inevitably become scars left in the surface of the skin. The skin, weakened by this relentless manipulation inevitably succumbs to the load imposed upon it. As the audience anticipates the release, they begin to crave the devastation. It is the suspension of the penetration of the skin which implicates the viewer in the act. The bystander can not be disconnected from what he/she witnesses, they become inextricably linked to the act and its repercussions.
