In the early 90s, Ani DiFranco crashed onto the music scene as a thundering new voice. Unapologetically bisexual, political, and feminist, Ani became a worldwide phenomenon when she founded the first "woman-run non-corporate queer-happy" label, Righteous Babe records, beating the male-dominated music industry at their own game. The press called her "an entrepreneurial wonder" and "the industry's worst nightmare." Ani simply called herself a folk singer, dedicated to art, activism and staying true to herself, no matter the cost. The fiery portrait, 1-800-ON-HER-OWN takes you on a wild cinematic road trip through Ani DiFranco's punk-folk past to her life today as a passionate activist and groundbreaking indie rock star. Throughout the ride, she's brutally honest, famously foul-mouthed and totally hilarious. Her daily challenges resonate as an enduring, inspiring musical icon and a relatable contemporary "everywoman" with her own epic fails and hard-won victories.

Robyn Bahr The Hollywood Reporter It’s a snooze. Sep 27, 2024 Full Review Andrew Parker The Gate Fans could enjoy this to some degree, but they could get more emotional and intellectual payoffs from simply listening to a DiFranco album or going to a show instead.
