Story

A young woman leaves her Death Valley home in pursuit of a new life, while her father—still dressed in his Santa suit from a local Christmas pageant—drunkenly trails behind. As they navigate the landscape of 1984, they encounter a series of strange occurrences: street interviews, punk rock performances, television programs exploring past-life regression and nuclear anxieties, and an unpredictable ex-convict. The film weaves together these disparate elements as the characters' personal journeys intersect with the chaos around them.

Why watch

  • Rare 1983 comedy-music film that blends experimental storytelling with live punk performances
  • Features performances by bands Flipper and The Mutants alongside the narrative
  • Directed by Rick Schmidt with an unconventional approach to cinema

Good for: Viewers interested in experimental 1980s cinema and punk culture; content rating unknown, so check before watching with others.
