Watching: She's a Song

Overview

The world of amplified guitars and distorted sound is predominantly male-dominated. But if we listen more closely and attentively, the story is different. From the 1950s to the present day, director Francisca Marvão opens the treasure chest of living testimonies, and from it, images and sounds begin to emerge that have never before entered the canon of Portuguese music. The girls are out there... rocking as if there's no tomorrow. "She's a Song" is a journey of discovery through the world of rock in Portugal, in the voices of its illustrious unknowns: the women.
