Friends… the cat is officially out of the bag.
I’m grateful to tell you that i'm directing a new documentary feature film called “BEAT YOUR HEART OUT.”

The film is about one of the great unsung punk rock bands of all time. We are still in production. I’m working with an incredible team of some of my favorite people on earth. Mike Webber Andy Romero Casey Dewey Javier Escovedo Jud Kite John Davis
Baba Chenelle Hector Penalosa Robert Lopez

More about the film: BEAT YOUR HEART OUT is a documentary film about The Zeros.

In 1976 four Mexican-American teenagers blasted out of the sleepy San Diego suburb of Chula Vista preaching the gospel according to proto punks like The Standells, The Seeds, and the New York Dolls. They didn’t realize it at the time, but they had just formed one of the first punk rock bands in Southern California. This film is their story.

He was incredibly gracious and generous with his time and stories he told us blew us away!!!
