About this Event
Be among the first to experience Los Frikis at this exclusive pre-release screening before its official debut on December 25, 2024! 🎥 Join us on Tuesday, December 4th, at 6:30 PM at Cal State Northridge's Armer Theater. Enjoy the film and stay for a live conversation with writer/directors Tyler Nilson and Michael Schwartz, actor Eros de la Puente, and producer, Rebecca Karch.
Inspired by true events set against the backdrop of Cuba’s 1990s 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, and freedom.
Produced by Academy Award®-winning producers Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, LOS FRIKIS is the second feature from the filmmakers behind The Peanut Butter Falcon, Michael Schwartz & Tyler Nilson, featuring stand-out performances from Adria Arjona (Hit Man) and Héctor Medina (Viva), and newcomer Eros de la Puente.
