Los Punks: We Are All We Have

There is a punk scene in the south of Los Angeles. There is one on the east side too. The shows are not held in clubs. They happen in the backyards of houses. The sound system is whatever can be found. Getting in is usually free. The people who come are young. Some are still at school and some a little older. The scene has been going for years. The documentary follows them. It shows how a show gets put together. It shows who plays and who turns up. For them the scene is a place of belonging. The film’s title says as much. Angela Boatwright made the seventy nine minute film, an American production finished in 2016.
