Sid and Nancy

Punk’s doomed glamour gets two young tourists in over their heads. When a volatile bassist and his American girlfriend converge in a New York already littered with wreckage, their self-destructive orbit tightens into a shared freefall. It lands somewhere between tabloid and tragedy, closer to myth than memory.
