About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours

In late 1980s Los Angeles, Jacki (Gina Gershon) and her all-girl punk rock band, Clam Dandy, are trying to make it big. Along with bandmates played by Drea de Matteo (The Sopranos), Lori Petty (Tank Girl, A League of Their Own), and Shelly Cole (Gilmore Girls), she has spent years struggling playing gigs up and down the Sunset Strip. After several failed attempts to get signed and on the verge of turning 40, Jacki decides that if the band’s one last shot at the big time is unsuccessful, she will give up her dreams of stardom.

'GET PUNK'D' is a monthly series recognizing the obscurity and unruliness of punk subculture. Ranging from low-budget indie flicks to coming-of-age dramas, these films feature a heavy dose of gritty rock 'n' roll soundtracks, DIY methods, and anti-establishment attitudes.
