Available in select cities today, Green Room follows a down-on-their-luck punk band (Anton Yelchin, Alia Shawkat, Callum Turner, Joe Cole) as they perform a last-minute gig in order to make enough money to buy gas to get home to Virginia. They take the stage to face an audience of neo-Nazi skinheads, and start the set with a cover of the Dead Kennedys’ “Nazi Punks F*** Off.” Although their performance seems to go surprisingly well, when they return backstage, they find something incredibly gruesome and are confronted by the club owner and some white supremacists. Click here for showtimes.
