GIRLS BITE BACK + ROAD MOVIE
Wolfgang Büld GIRLS BITE BACK aka WOMEN IN ROCK 1980, 45 min, 16mm-to-DCP. In English and German with English subtitles. "Canvassing a selection of female musicians squarely at the forefront of the post-punk tide, director Wolfgang Büld finds plenty of restless, spiky personalities and intriguing approaches to music and performance. Metal-heads Girlschool, tribal dub merchants The Slits, No Wave experimentalists Mania D, and operatic rock diva Nina Hagen are all featured in live performances, but best of all is a supremely sarcastic Siouxsie Sioux, filmed and interviewed on tour in Berlin." –SCHAMROCK LiLiPUT ROAD MOVIE 1982/2006, 29 min, Super-8mm-to-digital Recorded in 1982 by the legendary all-female Swiss punk band LiLiPUT (née Kleenex) while on the road, the film captures both the exhilaration and the tedium of touring.
