Today, we see a new style of feminism springing up all over the world – young, provocative and radical...
And to get their message across, these girls have opted for rock music!
While the Pussy Riotcame as a shock to Russia and fascinated the West, the concerts of Peaches or Grimes are sold. Artists such as Kathleen Hanna make their comeback, reminding us that it all began in 1990 in some backwater of the United States.

The RIOT GRRRLS revolutionized rock and inspired entire generations of young artists around the globe. This film explores today’s feminist scene while revisiting the little known history of this revolution that shook the early 90s.
