Description

Sometime in the 1960s, in sunny Sacramento, two Filipina-American sisters got together to play music. Little did they know their garage rock band would evolve into the legendary Fanny, the first all-woman band to release an LP with a major record label. Despite recording a handful of albums and amassing a dedicated fan base that included music legend David Bowie, the band all but disappeared from the records of music history. This Hot Docs 2021 audience favourite not only tells the story of the band's rocking past, but also documents its next chapter: now in their 60s, the bandmates are recording a new album—and they’re ready to take their place in the halls of rock’n’roll fame.
