A look at the life of activist, musician, and cultural icon Kathleen Hanna, who formed the punk band Bikini Kill and pioneered the "riot grrrl" movement of the 1990s.
A fascinating, affectionate profile.
Hanna’s fearless voice still commands attention.
The energetic and confrontational co-founder of the 1990s Riot Grrrl movement and lead singer of Bikini Kill and Le Tigre is still beguiling to watch.
Kathleen Hanna, former lead singer of Bikini Kill, comes across as an inspirational figure in Sini Anderson's rousing documentary about her.
Inspiring feminist director captures spirit of inspiring feminist singer.
Sini Anderson’s film doesn’t present its subject as an icon; instead it humanises Hanna and empowers its audience.
Terrifically watchable and impressively empowering.
