Film maker and longtime collaborator Beth B’s new career-spanning documentary Lydia Lunch: The War Is Never Over is structured around the themes that have inspired Lunch since her 1970s no wave breakthrough band Teenage Jesus And The Jerks: patriarchy, sexual abuse, violence, corporate greed and resistance.

Funded by a Kickstarter campaign, the film follows Lunch at rehearsals and on tour with her band Retrovirus. Alongside interviews with its main subject, it also talks to Thurston Moore, Kembra Pfahler, Jim Sclavunos, Donita Sparks and Nicolas Jaar, among others. The world premiere of Lydia Lunch: The War Is Never Over happens at New York Greenwich Village IFC Center on 9 November.
