Hot Wire My Heart

Hot Wire My Heart is the punk version of Sweet Smell of Success, where muckraker Dante Sterno haunts the San Francisco punk clubs in 1978 for Ripoff Magazine, providing punks with salacious gossip on their punk heroes. When he discovers a scandal wrought by local scene favorite Tommy Shock, the son of a prominent local politician, Sterno is captured, tortured and severely beaten. To ensure his safety he enlists the protection of problem fixer and car thief Big Jason Gulliver, legendary punk monster last seen in Every Bitch For Himself. Hot Wire My Heart captures all the sex, violence and noise of 1978 San Francisco punk.
