Scenes from the Goldmine (1987)

In the neon-lit chaos of 1980s Los Angeles, a young woman chases her dream of breaking into the New Wave rock scene. She navigates smoky clubs, cutthroat bands, and fleeting romances, all while clinging to her own raw talent and a cassette tape of original songs. As the city’s glittering surface fades, she must decide how far she’s willing to go—and what she’s ready to lose—to make her voice heard.
