KRCL's Music Meets Movies celebrates Women’s History Month on Thursday, March 12 at Brewvies Cinema Pub with a screening of the 2024 Ani DiFranco documentary 1-800-ON-HER-OWN.

The documentary follows ground-breaking indie musician/feminist Ani DiFranco on a wild road trip from her punk-folk past to her life today as an activist and rock star.

Folk singer/songwriter Ani DiFranco crashed onto the music scene in the early ‘90s, unapologetically bisexual, political and feminist. She toured relentlessly, thrashing out hundreds of frenzied shows that were part mosh pit, part hootenanny and part full-on tent revival, then selling cassette tapes from the trunk of her car to make it to the next gig. She founded her  “non-corporate queer-happy” label, Righteous Babe Records, and is now 30+ years into a career as an independent entrepreneur. This intimate doc captures her at home and recording her Revolutionary Love album at Justin Vernon’s (Bon Iver) artists’ retreat in Wisconsin.  “How does somebody like me move towards 60 like this?” she asks with a laugh. 1-800-ON-HER-OWN takes us on an intimate road trip, offering DiFranco as a relatable contemporary “everywoman” with her own epic fails and hard-won victories.
