Oklahoma City Museum of Art 415 Couch Dr. Oklahoma City, OK
As part of the Oklahoma City Museum of Art's exciting new Reality Check documentary series, comes the film Dragonslayer. The movie depicts the transgressions of a lost skate punk falling in love in the stagnant suburbs of Fullerton, California in the aftermath of Americaʼs economic collapse. Taking the viewer through a golden SoCal haze of broken homes, abandoned swimming pools and stray glimpses of unusual beauty, the film captures the life and times of Josh ?Skreech? Sandoval, a local skate legend and new father, as his endless summer finally collides with the future. Set to the alternately roaring and dreamy soundtrack of bands from the indie labels Mexican Summer and Kemado Records?including Best Coast, Bipolar Bear, Children, Dungen, Eddy Current and the Suppression Ring, Golden Triangle, Jacuzzi Boys, Little Girls, Real Estate, The Soft Pack, Saviours, as well as Death and Thee Oh Sees ? Dragonslayer is a punk rock manifesto to youth, love and learning to survive after the decline of western civilization.
