Shut Up & Sing

This film travels with the Dixie Chicks, from the peak of their popularity as National-Anthem-singing darlings of country music and top-selling female recording artists of all time, through the now famous anti-Bush comment made by the group's lead singer Natalie Maines in 2003. The film follows the lives and careers of the Dixie Chicks over a period of 3 years during which they were under political attack and received death threats, while continuing to live their lives, have children, and of course make music. At a time when the U.S. is fighting for democracy in another country, it raises questions about our own right to freedom of speech. (forgalmazó hivatalos szövege)
