SISTERS WITH TRANSISTORS is the remarkable untold story of electronic music's female pioneers, composers who embraced machines and their liberating technologies to utterly revolutionize how we produce and listen to music today. Narrated by Laurie Anderson, the film maps a new history of electronic music through the visionary women whose radical experimentations with machines redefined the boundaries of music and restored the central role of women in the history of music and society at large. Featuring Clara Rockmore, Suzanne Ciani, Laurie Spiegel, Pauline Oliveros, Delia Derbyshire, Daphne Oram, Éliane Radigue, Maryanne Amacher and Bebe Barron.
