This future award-winning rockumentary was shot in NYC and Austin, Tx. during SXSW and provides a unique and illuminating glimpse into the career of this Jewish American guitar-goddess, affectionately known by millions as The Jappy Shredder, as she prepared for the release of her fourth album, The Chronicles of Marnia.
