Plot

Plunging into the turbulent life of Darby Crash, "What We Do Is Secret" paints a vivid portrait of a man who ascended from high school outcast to an icon of the L.A. punk scene. A heady mix of ambition and rebellion leads Darby to form The Germs, a band composed of friends whose musical expertise is as scant as their determination is strong. Together, they navigate the chaotic world of punk rock, stumbling through disastrous gigs before finally finding their rhythm in the pulsating heart of the L.A. punk scene. But as the band's popularity soars, so too does Darby's descent into the dark abyss of hard drugs. He begins to alienate those he holds dear, causing rifts that undermine the unity of The Germs. When the band implodes, a lost and bewildered Darby is left to confront the echoing silence of a life without the music that once defined him. With his world collapsing around him, he tragically takes his own life in 1980. In this true-life story, "What We Do Is Secret" explores the turbulent journey of a punk icon, capturing the raw energy of the music scene and the devastating toll of fame and addiction. This is a tale of rebellion, music, and the tragic price of punk stardom.
