This is a biography of the Indigo Girls, the lesbian folk-rock duo. With archival footage, interviews with the Girls and some with associates and fans, it explores their their history and music, as well as their various activist projects. These include their covid-era Zoom fundraising productions. Their personal life is included, including marriage and motherhood for one, and a potential more-than-tomboy identity for the other. While they somewhat resent being ignored by the mainstream music industry, they have rabid LGBT fans, for whom their songs became personal anthems.
This documentary featured a lot of their songs, which ran not just as concert pieces, but also as a background soundtrack. I was not well acquainted with their music, but did find it interesting. I saw this at the Inside Out 2SLGBT+ Film Festival, basically as a prelude to the showing of Glitter and Doom, a musical that featured Indigo Girls songs. I was happy that I did.
It did seem that the title was based on a motto that the Girls used.
