Plot

A Fat Wreck (2016) is a riveting exploration of the influential music label, Fat Wreck Chords, celebrated for its 25-year journey in "ruining punk rock". The film unravels the extraordinary narrative of founders Fat Mike, an icon of punk band NOFX, and his ex-wife Erin Kelly-Burkett, detailing the inception, evolution, trials, and triumphs of their musical empire. As much a testament to the power of chosen family and community as it is a kaleidoscope of debauchery and occasional involuntary drug use, A Fat Wreck navigates uncharted territory in the realm of puppet-driven punk rock music documentary filmmaking. The feature-length documentary chronicles the vibrant early history of Fat Wreck Chords, tracing its roots back to the vision of Fat Mike and his then-wife Erin Burkett, and its rise to cultural prominence in the late 1990s. It's a tale told with audacious creativity, peppered with moments that blur the line between the fantastical and the real - if you watch one film featuring a dominatrix disciplining a puppet, make it A Fat Wreck. A Fat Wreck is not just a film; it's an immersive journey into the heart of punk rock, a spirited testament to the resilience of a music label, and an unflinching portrayal of the individuals who dared to disrupt the status quo. Watch as the vibrant cacophony of punk rock music intertwines with a narrative as unpredictable and compelling as its soundtrack.
