Another title set for July 2024 is an exclusive Netflix SVOD debut. A documentary feature on the band Indigo Girls will stream on Netflix exclusively in the United States from July 12th, 2024.
Directed by Alexandria Bombach, the documentary looks back at the long-running career of Indigo Girls, which consists of Amy Ray and Emily Saliers. The folk-rock duo has been active for almost forty years with their best-known songs Closer to Fine, Galileo, Power of Two, and Least Complicated.
Per the official description of the documentary, here’s what you can expect:
“With forty years of making music as the iconic folk-rock band Indigo Girls, Amy Ray and Emily Saliers have made their mark as musicians, songwriters, and dedicated activists. They have represented radical self-acceptance to many, leading multiple generations of fans to say, “the Indigo Girls saved my life.” Still, Amy and Emily battled misogyny, homophobia, and a harsh cultural climate chastising them for not fitting into a female pop star mold. With joy, humor, and heart-warming earnestness, Sundance award-winning director Alexandria Bombach brings us into a contemporary conversation with Amy and Emily—alongside decades of the band’s home movies and intimate present-day verité.”
The doc holds a 93% on RottenTomatoes from critics, with the New York Times giving out its coveted NYT Critic’s Pick, saying, “Existing fans will be mesmerized, but non-fans like me should also get a kick out of “It’s Only Life After All.”
Until now, the movie has been exclusively available on VOD platforms plus in select theaters nationwide throughout this year. The doc first made its world premiere at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival.
Netflix will also be the SVOD streaming home for a number of other movies throughout 2024. Just today, we announced that the Dennis Quaid movie The Long Game will also hit Netflix on July 12th. Plus, we’ll see The Neon Highway drop for the first time on a streamer, too.
