Description

In a time of curfew, no freedom of expression and an official culture that fostered simpleton and absurd pop, young people in various places in Chile caused a spontaneous cry of disgust to germinate. The protest music against the dictatorship was monopolized by the Canto Nuevo groups until punk broke out. With interviews with members of Fiskales ad-hok, Dadá, Pinochet Boys and Políticos Muertos, among others, Pank responds to the need to recreate an aspect of our recent history, whose precariousness and effervescence prevented it from being documented at the time.
