Synopsis: Twisted Edge

Twisted Edge is the agonizing collection of journal entries from a lost and forgotten 90's San Diego hardcore band. Derrick and Travis undergo traumatizing events that hurl their rebellious aggression into a downward spiral of despondency, and Asher's the only one sustaining them with optimism. Meanwhile Conrad's smoking and drinking his life away, and Kesler and Rudy are competitively brandishing their virility in mosh pits. Impulsive, confessional, nonlinear, and narrated by multiple characters, Twisted Edge brings to light the dehumanizing violence the hardcore scene promotes, the startling loss of hope after having been raised to think positively, and the destruction of machismo through the screamo subgenre.
