According to a release from the film’s director, Emmy Award-winning documentarian Alison Ellwood, Let the Canary Sing “chronicles Lauper’s meteoric ascent to stardom and her profound impact on generations through her music, ever-evolving punk style, unwavering feminism and tireless advocacy.”

“The documentary takes the audience on an engaging exploration of a renowned and pioneering artist who has left a remarkable legacy with her art.”

The title comes from a 40 years old lawsuit which followed the beginning of Lauper’s solo career after her time in Blue Angels. The judge who resolved the case said of Lauper, “Let the canary sing.”
