Composer Philip Glass once said of the musician and dancer, a contemporary of his, Meredith Monk, “Out of all of us, she had – and still has – the most unique talent.” This film portrait tells the story of a creator who entered the art world already possessing a distinctive vision she refused to abandon under any circumstances. Starting with the time when reviewers referred to the first performances of Monk as “disgrace” and finishing with her becoming a legend of experimental music. Her life’s work is accompanied by the artist’s own words and music performed in her own voice.
