ABOUT THE FILM:

In Spanish with English subtitles.

Inspired by true events set against the backdrop of Cuba’s 1990s punk subculture, LOS FRIKIS is a powerful coming-of-age story centering around Gustavo who idolizes his older brother Paco and his punk bandmates. As oppression and extreme poverty tighten their grip, the Frikis take a desperate and defiant stand, intentionally injecting themselves with HIV to gain refuge in a government-run sanatorium. There, in a world meant for isolation, they carve out their own anarchic utopia—an oasis of rock ‘n’ roll, joy, and freedom.
