Totem feels like a raw glimpse into the wild heart of the punk scene in the '80s. It’s a documentary that doesn’t shy away from the grit and angst of the no future generation. The pacing can be a bit erratic, much like the culture it captures, swinging between chaotic energy and reflective moments. The atmosphere is thick with rebellion, featuring real-life performances and candid interviews that bring the ethos of punk to life. You notice the practical effects used, capturing the rawness and authenticity of the time. It’s not polished, which is kind of the point; it has this visceral quality that immerses you in the struggles and philosophies of a generation that felt lost yet vibrant.
