With Ukraine's sovereignty and cultural identity under threat, punk icons Gogol Bordello are using their music as a rallying cry for a nation. Through never before seen photos and video archives spanning two decades – including concert performances, backstage moments and revealing interviews – Scream of My Blood: A Gogol Bordello Story follows the epic journey of Eugene Hütz, Gogol Bordello frontman and compelling storyteller. A Romani born in Ukraine, Hütz fled his homeland during the Chornobyl disaster. After years of exorcising demons through his music, we follow his journey home to face the biggest demon of all. A wild punk-rock doc, this is a testament to the power of speaking your truth, no matter the cost.
