"Sisters With Transistors is more than a music documentary. It's a long overdue tribute to the women that broke barriers in music, technology, and society as a whole.

"A magical, important film." - Jim Kolmar, SXSW

"A vibrant and exciting film... imbued with a spirit of  innovation, imagination and defiance against the odds." - Sophie Brown, CPH:DOX NEXT: WAVE AWARD
