Film: Fanny: The Right to Rock
Fanny: The Right to Rock (2021, dir. Bobbi Jo Krals, USA, 96 mins.)
A passionate and compelling documentary about two Filipina-American sisters from Sacramento who formed a garage band with friends in the 1960’s that became Fanny, the first all-women band to release an LP with a major record label, yet after five critically-acclaimed albums over five years while fighting early barriers of race, gender, and sexuality in the music industry, disappeared from memory until reuniting fifty years later to record a new album.
