The Gits
(Kerri O'Kane, 2008, Digi-BETA, 80 min)
In the pre-NWFF years, Seattle was known for its thriving Grunge scene. The Gits were the resident musical underdogs with the unparalleled vocal power of front woman Mia Zapata they set the bar for indie rock in the Pacific Northwest. That was until tragedy struck in 1993 with Ziapata's murder right in the heart of Capital Hill. Years later when filmmaker Kerri O'Kane decided to chronicle the bands rise and tragic demise our filmmaking programs helped her create this one part The Filth and The Fury, one part CSI: Seattle, that is as engaging and powerful as the music that inspired it.
