Summary:
"When punk rock exploded in Washington, DC, it was a mighty convergence of powerful music, foundational friendships, and clear minds. Punk the Capital explores the inspiring story of how this singular punk subculture took root in an unlikely place at the perfect time. Punk the Capital dives deep into a movement that not only refined a genre, but created a lasting model for DIY culture and political engagement. Situating DC punk within the larger narratives of rock 'n' roll, this film reveals why the sounds and ideas of this revolutionary music scene continue to influence and inspire people across the globe"--Container.
