Edgy and raw with emotion, Gregg Araki’s fragmented portrait of queer teens in 1990s California captures their ennui with the lo-fi fuzz of color video. Numbing pangs of existential angst and loneliness with alternative music, hot sex, and sharp wit, these disenchanted kids rebel with good cause.

Taking off on a delirious road trip to nowhere, enfant terrible Gregg Araki updates the fragmented style of 1960s Godard into an incendiary zigzag across a hysterically hostile America. Violence, spontaneous sex, and bright color explode across this devastating cult film of New Queer Cinema.
