Control ist ein biografischer Film über Ian Curtis (1956–1980), den Sänger der englischen Post-Punk-Band Joy Division. Er basiert auf dem Buch Touching from a Distance von Curtis’ Witwe Deborah und ist das Spielfilm-Regiedebüt des zuvor vor allem als Musikfotograf mit einer eigenen Bildsprache in Erscheinung getretenen Niederländers Anton Corbijn.
