A feature-length documentary chronicling early '80s punk rock band the Minutemen, from their beginnings in San Pedro, California, to their demise after the death of singer D. Boon in 1985.
Why it matters
Tim Irwin's documentary tells the story of the Minutemen, the San Pedro trio whose eclectic, politically charged music made them heroes to those who knew. Interviews with Mike Watt and others capture a band that valued substance over style.
