Punk's Dead, the sequel to the 1999 cult hit SLC Punk, is a punk romp through the Utah hinterlands. Ross, Penny, and Crash, three young outsiders from different tribes, set out on a road trip to a massive punk show. Ross, 19, is the love child of Trish and Heroin Bob, who died before Ross was born. Throughout their journey, and with the help of a healthy dose of drugs, alcohol, and punk music, Ross shreds his darkly Gothic outlook and embraces life. Trish, Ross's mother who raised him alone in her steam punk shop, discovers that he is in a crisis. She enlists the help of his 'uncles,' Bob's old SLC gang, to track him down. When they all meet at the concert, they are forced to confront their unresolved relationships with Bob.
