Music feeds our souls over here on Bitch Talk and it was a joy to watch a documentary that celebrates that magical connection. We had the chance to speak with director/writer/producer Kathleen Ermitage who's film Mixtape Triology: Stories of the Power of Music explores three different musicians and their music - The Indigo Girls, Vijay Iyer, and Talib Kweli and the fans who have been inspired by their art.
Kathleen tells us how she went about finding these stories, what she learned from the conversations she had with musicians and their fans and how they challenged her thinking, how she and her team had to creatively film and edit during the pandemic, and how social justice work was weaved into these stories. Mixtape was such an uplifting story of artists and their fans and we think this could be an episodic in the works.
You can get tickets to watch Mixtape Trilogy in person at the Bentonville Film Festival or stream it here: https://www.goelevent.com/BFF/e/MixtapeTrilogy
