Synopsis
1980's video visionary Steve Glenn directs and stars as the world's last living radio pirate on the run in a post-apocalyptic pastiche of analog pop-trash. Censored and pursued by the fascists at the FCC, Steve gases up his van and races into The Forbidden Zone – from Donald Judd's West Texas art compound to the pantless badlands of Burning Man – towards the last bastion of uncontaminated American culture: New Los Angeles.
Music Boards of Canada, Trans Am, The Fucking Champs, The Prima Donnas, Luna, and an original score by Friends of Dean Martinez.
