Finally, a feature film about Janis Ian, one of our favorite former Nashvillian polyhypenates. Ian is a singer, a songwriter, a GOAT-tier guitar shredder, a queer pioneer, a social justice bulwark and sci-fi author. The “Society’s Child” singer was labelmates with The Velvet Underground and The Mothers of Invention when she was in high school. “At Seventeen” will make you cry every time, forever. 2025 feels like it’s ready for Ian’s jazzy, soul-folk take on American pop, like “Stars” could slide right into our Laufey/Clairo playlist. Breaking Silence, directed by Varda Bar-Kar, is finally giving the quick version of this woman’s boundless badassery. Catch it Monday night only as part of the Belcourt’s Music City Mondays series.
