Get ‘Closer to Fine’ with this celebrated Sundance doc about the iconic folk-rock band Indigo Girls

Description

The iconic folk-rock band Indigo Girls has been making beautiful music for over 40 years, with Amy Ray and Emily Saliers having made their mark as musicians, songwriters, and dedicated activists. The Indigo Girls have represented radical self-acceptance to many — leading multiple generations of fans to say, “the Indigo Girls saved my life.”

Despite decades of success, Ray and Saliers have battled misogyny, homophobia, and a harsh cultural climate chastising them for not fitting into a female pop-star mold. With joy, humor, and heart-warming moments, Sundance award-winning director Alexandria Bombach brings us into a contemporary conversation with Ray and Saliers — alongside incredible home movies and intimate present-day verité.
