“This is nominally a music doc but it transcends the genre to become a shining portrait of humanity…
I can not tell you how good this film is…
I don’t care if you like Harley’s music or not, you need to see this because it’s a great story compellingly told.”
-from UNSEENFILMS.NET review
World Premiere Of
Harley Flanagan:
Wired For Chaos
From his harsh childhood in the burnt-out Lower East Side, musician Harley Flanagan burst onto the punk music scene at age 11 as drummer for his aunt’s band, the Stimulators. The founder of the Cro-Mags tells his incredible story, while interviews with hard rockers and icons Flea, Ice-T, Henry Rollins, Anthony Imperioli and surprise guests add insights. Featuring gritty footage of NYC’s downtown 1970s and 80s music scene, this passionate film showcases Harley’s against-the-odds transformation from chaos to peace, driven by music, family, and personal growth. – Karen McMullen, DOCNYC
