A firework of a woman, Cyndi Lauper uses her voice and vigor to tackle rather unconventional topics ranging from women’s rights, abortion, AIDS, queerness to masturbation.
This documentary spans her journey from her early days with her band Blue Angel to today, where Cyndi Lauper is as outspoken as ever. In the music video to her first major hit, whose original lyrics she reworked into a strong message of empowerment, she danced through the streets of New York with young women of all colors: Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!
This biography of the grande dame of punk is an absolute delight to watch and listen to!
