Twenty years ago, in 1995, Natalie Merchant released her first solo effort, Tigerlily, which went on to be certified multi-platinum. In those two decades both she and the songs from Tigerlily have matured. Last summer, Natalie re-recorded the 11 songs with different arrangements, inspired by how they had evolved over time in the live setting.

The film is a powerful, memoir-style look at the impact of those songs and the often major role they have played in shaping not only the artist but her fans as well. Natalie’s entire musical life is encapsulated in this very personal film, which delves deep into the music through live performances, archival footage, and interviews. Her fellow musicians, friends, and impassioned fans share how the songs of Tigerlily have influenced and sustained them over the past two decades.
