Rebel Scum The Movie

Rebel Scum The Movie Chronicles two years in the life of “psycho white trash punk band”, The Dirty Works, exploring several themes, including mental illness, addiction, relationships, family dysfunction, and the struggle for artistic expression in the heart of America’s “Bible Belt.”
Centered on frontman Christopher Scum, Rebel Scum is, at its core, the story of one man’s continued drive to create art in spite of the barriers imposed by society and his own self-destructive tendencies.
The main subjects of the documentary are a punk band based out of Knoxville called The Dirty Works. Secondary subjects include Atlanta band Dropsonic, Asheville based Monsters of Japan, Knoxville based Disobedients & The Cornbred Blues Band, musician/producer Carl Snow, musician/producer Vadim, poet Rus Harper and Michael aka Lumpy.
Production of Rebel Scum began two years ago while filming Dropsonic on tour. Director, Video Rahim, of Worldstorm Arts Lab, from Atlanta, caught an opening performance of The Dirty Works. Francis Percarpio, Producer and Owner of WorldStorm Arts Lab, later seeing the footage independently found a way to bring The Dirty Works story to film. In the ensuing years production staff have traveled back and forth to Knoxville and to various other Southeastern cities with The Dirty Works.
