A punk-rock manifesto to youth, love and learning to survive after the decline of western civilization. DRAGONSLAYER documents the transgressions of a lost skate punk falling in love in the stagnant suburbs of Fullerton, California in the aftermath of Americaʼs economic collapse. Taking the viewer through a golden SoCal haze of broken homes, abandoned swimming pools and stray glimpses of unusual beauty, DRAGONSLAYER captures the life and times of Josh “Skreech” Sandoval, a local skate legend and new father, as his endless summer finally collides with the future. Winner of Best Documentary Feature at the **SXSW Film Festival**. Winner of Best Documentary at **Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival**. *"In following this scattered character around, DRAGONSLAYER director Tristan Patterson makes a very purposeful documentary about the pessimistic worldview of the nation's youth, and what that means for the future." - Peter Hartlaub, **San Francisco Chronicle***
