Jesus Figueroa, @Thisfunktional of ThisFunktional.com, talks with actors Hector Medina, Eros de la Puente about coming-of-age film LOS FRIKIS, in theaters in NY and LA December 20 and National wide December 25.
Inspired by true events set against the backdrop of Cuba’s 1990’s punk subculture, Los Frikis is a powerful coming-of-age story centering around Gustavo who idolizes his older brother Paco and his punk bandmates.
As oppression and extreme poverty tighten their grip, the Frikis take a desperate and defiant stand, intentionally injecting themselves with HIV to gain refuge in a government-run sanatorium.
There, in a world meant for isolation, they carve out their own anarchic utopia—an oasis of rock 'n' roll, joy, freedom and acceptance.
Directed and written by Michael Schwartz & Tyler Nilson
Cast: Adria Arjona, Héctor Medina, introducing Eros de la Puente, with Luis Alberto García and Jorge Perugorría
