“The movie equivalent of garage rock … crude, angry, stripped of basics.” – Washington Post

Tough and in your face, Rodrigo D: No Future reveals the brutal tale of a teenager trying to make his way in one of the world’s toughest towns: Medellin, Colombia. Rodrigo dreams of playing rock and roll, so he rallies his friends into a punk band. The band’s music emerges as a salvation from a web of violence, fear, aimlessness, drugs, and jail.

Employing a cast of young actors and real-life street toughs – some of whom met violent ends before the film was released – Rodrigo D invites comparisons to Luis Buñuel’s Los Olvidos and Alex Cox’s Sid & Nancy.
