Set against the backdrop of Oregon and Washington’s persistent rain, “Punk Love” tells the tale of two desolate lovers yearning for a Hollywood-style conclusion to their dreamlike narrative. Sarah, a 15-year-old adrift in a loveless household in a bleak, small town dominated by a paper mill, sees a chance for a new beginning when she encounters Spike. As they fall for each other, Sarah and Spike embark on a series of petty crimes to sustain themselves and their addiction. Spike harbors his own aspirations, and after landing a spot in a band, he believes they are finally on the path to escaping their doomed reality. However, just as hope seems within reach, their world spirals out of control, leaving Spike and Sarah to rely solely on their unwavering love to endure against all odds. Directed and written by Nick Lyon, “Punk Love” is a contemporary fairy tale about two lost souls seeking purpose in a merciless world.
