The Punk Singer: A Film About Kathleen Hanna - Official Trailer | HD | IFC Films

Opens In Theaters And On Demand and Digital Download November 29.

Kathleen Hanna, lead singer of the punk band Bikini Kill and dance-punk trio Le Tigre, rose to national attention as the reluctant but never shy voice of the riot grrrl movement. She became one of the most famously outspoken feminist icons, a cultural lightning rod. Her critics wished she would just shut-up, and her fans hoped she never would. So in 2005, when Hanna stopped shouting, many wondered why. Through 20 years of archival footage and intimate interviews with Hanna, THE PUNK SINGER takes viewers on a fascinating tour of contemporary music and offers a never-before-seen view into the life of this fearless leader.

Only 9 comments? K, if you're checking this, you guys need to reform and do No Values 2025. Too many bro bands there and a lot of young women love punk rock. L7 was great.
