“The Punk Syndrome” is a documentary that delves into the world of Finland’s most dynamic punk rock group, Pertti Kurikan Nimipäivät. The band, consisting of Pertti, Kari, Toni, and Sami, all of whom have intellectual disabilities, perform their music with immense passion and confidence. The film chronicles their rise from anonymity to fame, capturing their personal and professional experiences. We see them navigate conflicts, romance, and intense emotions, spending long hours in the studio and traveling for tours. The band members share moments of laughter and tears, engage in disputes over who gets the coveted front seat on the tour bus, and eventually reconcile to engage with their audience, proudly promoting their band.
