Beyond the Screams/Mas Alla de Los Gritos Martin Sorrondeguy, 1999, 30 min.

Beyond the Screams is a half-hour video documentary about Chicano/Latino participation in U.S. punk and hardcore, a statement which hardly begins to encapsulate the project begun here. Bracketed by the early East L.A. punk scene and ’90s U.S. hardcore, Martin Sorrondeguy(Los Crudos/Limp Wrist) traces the historical trajectory of Chicano/Latino punk rock and more, its always-emergent body politic, with brilliant skill.
