Janis - Little Girl Blue

Documentary film screening with post-show talk on Janis Joplin in the Royal Albert Hall's Elgar Room.

Watch an exclusive screening of Oscar® nominated director Amy J. Berg's (West of Memphis) new documentary film Janis: Little Girl Blue (2016) in the Royal Albert Hall's Elgar Room. This moving, insightful portrait of the original 'Rock Chick' Janis Joplin tells the story of a white girl with a ferocious soulful voice, who broke into the male dominated music scene but grappled with her inner demons and addictions.

Janis: Little Girl Blue brings to life Janis the paradox, both insecure and brazen. Via interviews from old band members, unseen audio and video footage, and readings from Janis's letters home to her parents, the film offers new understanding of a bright, complex woman whose surprising rise and sudden demise changed music forever.

Produced by Oscar® winner Alex Gibney (Taxi to the Darkside) and voiced by Chan Marshall (musician Cat Power).
