IF YOU LET ME GO- Inbal Perlmutter
As the lead singer of The Witches, a groundbreaking all-woman punk-rock band of the ‘90s, Inbal Perlmutter became an icon known for her unique voice and lyrics and her openness about sexuality and drug addiction in an era of misogyny and chauvinism. Despite her tragic death at the young age of 26, Inbal’s talent and
artistic soul solidified her as a revolutionary of the Israeli music scene, even collaborating with Nick Cave on her final album. Through unpublished diaries, rare archival footage, and personal accounts, IF YOU LET ME GO tells Inbal’s story, mirroring her own profound and passionate life.
