A raw, energetic portrait of teenage friendship and recklessness in 1970s Los Angeles, where youthful bonding coexists with self-destructive excess and an underlying current of danger.

A group of friends come of age in the asphalt desert of the San Fernando Valley, as set to a blazing soundtrack and endless drinking, drugs and sex.
