    Sisters with Transistors

    Lisa ROVNER 2020 UK, France b/w & color 89min English DCP
    A remarkably untold story of electronic music’s female pioneers and composers who embraced machines and their liberating technologies to transform how we produce and listen to music, Sisters with Transistors maps a new history of electronic music through 10 visionary women whose radical experimentations redefined the boundaries of music. Narrated by avant-garde composer Laurie ANDERSON, the film uncovers these fascinating and enigmatic musical geniuses and their peculiar way of hearing the world.
