Teaches of Peaches
Germany2024documentary102'International DocFilmMusic Competition
Peaches, who is a performer, provoker and a sassy lady, does not slow down in the sixth decade of her life. To the contrary, her tour celebrating the 20th anniversary of her album ‘Teaches of Peaches’ was an explosion of creativity. For the filmmakers, it was also an opportunity to find out more about this rebellious artist, an icon of feminism and queer culture. The result is a documentary propelled with punk energy and intimate at the same time. The camera follows the vocalist not only during concerts but also in her Berlin flat and among friends, while unique archival footage reveals her less known past. Despite the passage of time, the message of Peaches remains valid.
