About this Event

This International Women’s Day, we celebrate the genre defining female artists of the music industry with this inspiring documentary. Weaving together personal anecdotes with a scrapbook audio-visual aesthetic, 'Since Yesterday' takes us through each decade, a colourful mixtape is formed spanning multiple musical genres.

Discover unheard demos, lost archives and rare performances that celebrate the women who never compromised and subsequently got lost in time. The film takes a critical look at the barriers women have faced making music in the past and still face today. It asks how we can inspire young women to make music, if those who do so are continuously erased from our cultural history.

Written and narrated by award-nominated musician Carla J Easton, this is a powerful, global story told through a local lens.

Please note, this film is rated 15 by the BBFC.
