Hardcore Never Dies

“ROTTERDAM. 1996. 180 BPM.”

Michael (Joes Brauers) is seventeen and wants to be a pianist, but his lessons are going badly and he can't find the sound he's after. His older brother Danny (Jim Deddes) takes him into the gabber scene in 1990s Rotterdam, where the beats are hard and the nights are loud. Jim Taihuttu follows the brothers as Danny's drug business grows past the city's edge, and the money starts to cost them their safety.
