Synopsis
The Decline of Western Civilization Part III (1998) is an American music documentary you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Penelope Spheeris — who filmed Los Angeles punk in 1981 and Hollywood metal in 1988 — this final installment turns the camera on the city's gutter punk teenagers: homeless kids living on the streets and making noise music on the margins of a boom-era city that has no use for them.
Spheeris doesn't glamorize. What she captures is improvised survival — sleeping rough, substance abuse, self-recorded music — along with the punk ideology that serves as both community and coping mechanism. Flea and Keith Morris of Circle Jerks appear among the participants. Stream The Decline of Western Civilization Part III online on iFILM.
