On the trail of one of the most stunning voices of the 1960s, director Emmanuelle Antille follows the footsteps of folk blues singer Karen Dalton. With her melancholic timbre and mesmerizing guitar, the singer and musician was admired by her peers but has remained virtually unknown to the wider public. By reconstructing the pieces of her life, Antille reveals a fragile and combative woman with a harrowing story. This documentary sheds light on an exceptionally talented artist.
