The main flaw of this film is the fact it's made from a North-American perspective. One moment we get to see 1960s images of pioneers of electronic music like Delia Derbyshire, and suddenly we're in post-2010 EDM-festival land. This 88-minute feature is missing two whole decades of dance music, including the women active in Europe at the time. Director Stacey Lee is not knowledgable about all this and it shows. This is a film about gender inequality, without any respect for historic or cultural context. It rambles on about a very real problem, without even remotely exploring how it became a problem in the first place.
