Ten years on, Cool Kids of Death are back on the road, grappling with what their music has meant to their generation and how it can sustain them in a changed reality. Director Piotr Szczepański reunites with the band he first filmed in “Generation C.K.O.D.” to explore their compromises, doubts, and efforts to make a living from the sound that defined them.
“Twenty Years After: C.K.O.D.3” is the third part of a unique lifetime project. Twenty-two years ago Piotr Szczepański decided to make a film about a group of his friends every ten years, creating a unique generation portrait. These friends were the punk rock band Cool Kids of Death. The first part of the saga was the 2004 awarded documentary “C.K.O.D. Generation”. Twenty years after its foundation and ten years after disbanding, Cool Kids of Death starts a special tour of concerts now having a cult status. Will this reunion bring something more than just purely mercantile benefits?
