Lydia Lunch: the War Is Never Over - Movie

Lydia Lunch: the War Is Never Over

Beth B
Documentary : 75' / Art & Artists, Performance, Feminism, Women

The first career-spanning documentary retrospective of Lydia Lunch’s confrontational, acerbic and always electric artistry. As New York City’s preeminent ‘no wave’ icon from the late 70’s, Lunch has forged a lifetime of music and spoken word performance devoted to the utter right of any woman to seek pleasure, and to say “fuck you!” as loud as any man.
