i got to see this at the sxsw film festival. it was both wonderful and sad to be introduced to the songs of the Gits and Mia Zapata considering the tragedy surrounding her story. this documentary communicates her passion and lack of artifice and it was great the realness with which everyone involved spoke about her, their lack of pretension, and how much she meant to them. it is good to know that the organization Home Alive was founded as a result of her random, violent death. the filmmaker has an obvious sense of purpose in communicating the life of this singer that many of us were not aware of while she was alive.
