Girl in a Band

Directed by
DocumentaryMusic

Synopsis

Kate Mossman explores the often-repeated question faced by many female rock musicians: what is it like being a girl in a band? Despite their talent and presence, the sight of a woman playing guitar or drumming with intensity is still seen as unusual by many. From the moment women began forming their own bands, they were often categorized—labeled as the rock chick, the girl band, or part of a rock 'n' roll couple. Mossman aims to move beyond the clichés of fallen angels, grunge babes, and rock chicks to uncover the untold stories from the frontlines of rock, examining whether being a woman in a band has always been a unique experience.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 13

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
