In the 1990s, due to the huge number of independent bands active, the large audience present at the shows, and of course, its geography, the city of Santos earned the nickname "Brazilian California". Approved by some, rejected by others, the fact is that the nickname stuck and the importance of the local scene in this historical and undeniable cut. Within a decade, the island – yes, Santos is on an island – exported names like Garage Fuzz, Safari Hamburgers, White Frogs, Sociedade Armada, The Bombers, Sonic Sex Panic, Blind and more. And it imported in real time the main trends of American hardcore and punk, to the point where such styles were the main youth music in the city in the mid-1990s, all combined with a lot of surfing and skateboarding, of course. The documentary "Califórnia Brasileira" deals precisely with this period and phenomenon, presenting to Brazil the stories and peculiarities of the scene in a two-hour film filled with stories, punk rock and friendship.
