Big Gold Dream is a 2015 film documenting the story of Scotland's post-punk scene, focusing on record labels Fast Product and Postcard Records. Directed by filmmaker Grant McPhee, the film's name is taken from the 1981 Fire Engines single of the same name, the final release on the Pop Aural label.[1]

The film won the 2015 Edinburgh International Film Festival Audience Award and was followed by another music documentary in 2017 called Teenage Superstars, which was about acts associated with Creation Records and the 53rd & 3rd label.[2][3][4]
