DESCRIPTION:A powerful documentary from two-time Academy Award®-winning director 
 Barbara Kopple and director Cecilia Peck. On stage at a 2003 London 
 concert, Natalie Maines, lead singer of Texan trio the Dixie Chicks, spoke 
 these 15 words to a small audience at the start of their sold-out 
 international tour: "Just so you know, we're ashamed the president of the 
 United States is from Texas." The comment was delivered on the eve of the 
 American invasion of Iraq, and drew cheers from the decidedly anti-war and 
 anti-Bush British crowd. At the heightened moment of political polarization 
 in the United States, many people empowered this simple, yet loaded remark 
 to carry serious and longstanding ramifications. The film follows the lives 
 and careers of the Chicks through the writing and recording of their first 
 album since “the incident” – and three years of political attack, 
 making music, birthing babies, bonding, death threats, and laughter. At the 
 end, the film presents a complete reconsideration of who people think they 
 are, who they want to be and who, ultimately, they really are as women, as 
 public figures, and as musicians. ( 93 mins, 2006)\n
