Joan Baez has spent over six decades as one of the major figures in music, first coming to prominence as part of the folk revival, and writing a number of protest songs over the years. It was inevitable that Baez would get a documentary. "Joan Baez: I Am a Noise" chronicles her music career and her activism, as well as something that most people probably didn't know about: possible sexual assault during her childhood.
I don't know if I would call this the greatest documentary ever, but it was an eye-opening experience to learn so much about a woman whom we mainly know for her songs. I would've liked to see a clip of her performance at Woodstock.
Overall, I liked what the documentary had to say about this icon. I recommend it.
