Wren is a 19-year-old from New Jersey who wants to be a rock star. The trouble is she can't sing or play an instrument, but in New York's seedy underworld, new doors are opening... A vibrant time capsule of the gritty East Village and its young Eighties punk life, Susan Seidelman made her directorial debut with SMITHEREENS. The film earned much praise and even competed for the Palme d'or - making it one of America’s trailblazing indies before the movement kicked into high gear at the end of the decade.
