“Tear jerker and rockumentary are two genres that don’t generally go hand in hand but you’ll need a hanky and your Joan Jett lighter when watching Girls Rock.” –Bust Magazine

Girls Rock is a documentary about the Willie Mae Rock Camp for Girls, a music program for girls ages 8-18. The documentary follows four girls through their experience at rock camp and reveals what many books and studies have already described-- girls are struggling with a bewildering and heartbreaking array of challenges to their self-image. When given the opportunity to work together and make music, the girls are given a temporary reprieve from being sexualized, analyzed and pressured to conform. The act of picking up a guitar and making noise becomes a truly revolutionary act.
