The Punk Singer
(2013)
Directed by Sini Anderson
January 10 - Friday - 7:00 p.m.
January 11 - Saturday - 7:00 p.m.
January 17 - Friday - 6:30 p.m.
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
of recent decades, 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 inter-
views 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. (2K DCP. 80 min. Not Rated.)
Pussy Riot: A Punk Prayer
(2013) Directed by Mike Lerner and Maxim Pozdorovkin
January 17 - Friday - 9:30 p.m. *
Free but ticketed
Three young women face seven years in a Russian prison for a satirical performance in a Moscow cathe-
dral. But who is really on trial in a case that has gripped the nation and the world beyond--the young
artists or the society they live in? As members of the feminist art collective Pussy Riot, they performed a
40-second "punk prayer" inside Russia's main cathedral. This performance led to their arrest on charges
of religious hatred and culminated in a trial that has reverberated around the world and transformed the
face of Russian society. (2K DCP. 88 min. Not Rated.)
