Plot summary
Roger Miret, the vocalist of Agnostic Front, came to the United States from Cuba and grew up in an abusive home; Vinnie Stigma, the guitarist, is a second-generation New York Italian. The two met on the Lower East Side in the early 1980s and became friends, and the band they built helped shape the sound and the unwritten rules of New York hardcore. Their early years and the hardships around them, the band's rise, and the mark it left on later musicians and fans all form the story, along with the pair's lives away from the stage. Members of other New York hardcore bands add their recollections, and vintage concert footage runs through the documentary.
