Suzi Q

2019

SUZI Q - A Feature Documentary by Liam Firmager
Before Suzi Quatro burst on the music world in 1973, there were almost no women in rock, and absolutely none who played bass and sang lead vocals and led the band and rocked out and reached millions of people around the world, re-writing the rule book for the expected image of women in rock & roll. 

Singer, songwriter, bass player, bandleader, actress, radio-presenter, poet – there is only one Suzi Q, the pint-sized, leather-clad rocker who has sold more than 50 million records and in 2019 released a new album, celebrating 53 years as a working musician.

Little Richard: I Am Everything

2023

Lisa Cortés' documentary, shown at the opening of the Sundance Festival, tells the story of the black queer roots of rock 'n' roll, which shook the white-oriented canon of American pop music, and here we discover the innovator and originator - Richard Penniman. The world tried to squeeze him into certain frames, but Richard was an omnipresent being who contained many things in himself - and he was everything without shame.

With a wealth of archival footage and performances, the film brings us closer to his intricate intimate world and brings the life story of the legend, with all its ups and downs and all its contradictions. With interviews with family, musicians and respected researchers of black and queer issues, this documentary reveals how Richard turned the expression of his own personality into art, without being able to give himself what he gave to the world. Throughout his life, Richard bounced between God, sex and rock 'n' roll like a shiny, cracked pinball

Matangi/Maya/M. I. A. 

2018

The film provides unparalleled, intimate access to the artist in her struggles with the music industry and mainstream media, as her success and fame explode, becoming one of the most recognizable, pervasive, and provocative voices in music today.
She began as Matangi. The daughter of the founder of Sri Lanka’s armed Tamil resistance, she went into hiding from the government during the turbulent and bloody civil war. When her family fled to the UK, she became Maya, a creative immigrant teenager in London. Eventually, the world came to know her as M.I.A. when she emerged onto the global stage, creating a mashup, cut-and-paste identity that pulled from every corner of her path; a sonic sketchbook that brought together Tamil politics, art school punk, hip-hop beats and the unwavering, ultra-confident voice of a rising multicultural youth.
