Queercore: How to Punk a Revolution
1h 23m Arts & Culture, Documentary, LGBTQ 2017

A rebellious dive into Queercore, the explosive punk movement that fought back against both homophobia and conformity.

Queercore: How to Punk a Revolution chronicles the radical rise of a movement that tore through punk’s macho posturing and society’s queerphobia with unapologetic fury. Born from zines, DIY music, and raw defiance, it gave a generation of outsiders their own sound, style, and space. Through rare footage and fierce voices, the film celebrates the rebels who queered punk and changed culture forever.

_Rialto Recommends: _ Queercore: How to punk a Revolution. Bold, chaotic, and gloriously subversive, Queercore is a love letter to those who turned rage into art and protest into power. This is underground history at full volume, a reminder that real revolutions begin offstage, in the margins, and with a scream.
