Directed by Barbara Kopple, winner of two Academy Awards for Best Documentary, and Cecilia Peck, daughter of the famous actor Gregory Peck.

The film was also screened at the Tokyo International Film Festival, where it received thunderous applause. -- The Dixie Chicks are a talented girl band that has become a national sensation in the U.S., setting unprecedented sales records. However, things took a turn for the worse when they made an anti-Bush statement on stage just before the start of the Iraq War in 2003, resulting in the mass destruction of their CDs, a ban from radio stations, and a nationwide bashing spree that escalated to the point where murder threats were issued against them. Despite their predicament, the girls reevaluate themselves and grow as singers, women, and human beings, and in 2006, they won five Grammy Awards.
