Frequently asked questions

What is Donna about? Toggle content

"Donna" is a documentary that follows the life of a seventy-year-old woman who has left behind her Baptist upbringing in San Jose and found a new sense of freedom in ecstatic lip-synching performances in downtown bars. Estranged from her siblings, Donna's journey is one of self-discovery and empowerment, as she finds her true voice and expression in a world that once constrained her. Through intimate interviews and vivid performances, the film explores themes of identity, family, and the transformative power of art.
