Indigo Girls Amy Ray and Emily Saliers met in elementary school and began performing together just a few years later, still in high school. They have remained together as artistic partners, though never as romantic partners, for the decades since, drawing a loyal fan base who are drawn to their music but also to their activism. Through extensive and wide-ranging interviews, along with a wealth of home video footage, they discuss their lives and their work, the misogyny and homophobia they faced throughout, and the impact of their work. If you’re already an Indigo Girls fan, you obviously have to see this documentary, but even if you are only passingly familiar with their music, I encourage you to see it and become a fan. MUST SEE.
