Synopsis by Perry Seibert
Director Sini Anderson's documentary The Punk Singer profiles musician and outspoken feminist Kathleen Hanna, who was one of the central figures in the riot grrrl movement as the leader of the band Bikini Kill. The filmmakers utilize a wealth of archival footage, as well as interviews with Hanna, to tell her story, and explain why she retreated from the spotlight.
