SYNOPSIS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I changed the bass for the camera,\u201d says Marilina Gim\u00e9nez, who until 2013 and for six years played in the band Yilet with two girlfriends. That is the framework in which her autobiographical and choral documentary film was conceived. Its gender perspective confronts several dilemmas: Which is the women\u2019s role in the current music scene? What happens when women make the music they choose? What happens when their bodies on stage are sensual and aggressive? A night tour through Buenos Aires, where different voices are part of “A Girl’s Band”. Come and dance. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Director\u2019s Statement<\/strong>
For some years I played the bass in Yilet, a pop-rock group, with two girlfriends. It always caught my attention that in the concerts lineups, we were put together with other girl bands. We were many women playing in Buenos Aires but we were all unknown. Nobody wrote about us in magazines or invited us to music shows on TV. It seemed like our place was the underground. One day I went to a gig with my camera and started to register the scene. With time it became hours of material of women playing music. The girls were very different between each other, but shared the same problems when having to step up on a stage or entering a recording studio. I articulated fragments, emotions and ideas arising from those issues to create this musical manifesto, which I believe adds strength to a bigger cause: we are more and more women fighting for our rights and equal representation in environments dominated by men. I think that this film sheds some light over the reality of these artists to question it and in some way transgress it. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
