LAST FAST RIDE - The Life, Love and Death of a Punk Goddess, is the first and only feature-length documentary film about the infamous bay-area punk rock performer Marian Anderson. Singer, model, prostitute, bisexual, drug addict, insane, beautiful, talented, selfless, violent... all words used to describe Marian Anderson. Plagued by sexual abuse, mental illness and self-destruction, Marian's story is a cautionary tale of hope, broken dreams, and shattered endings.Through a combination of concert footage, photographs, and interviews with key people in Marian's life, director Lilly Ayers pieces together the portrait of a fragmented and damaged girl who was left to fend for herself in a world of danger and exploitation. Narrated by punk rock legend and actor Henry Rollins, this riveting film covers Marian's idyllic youth, her tormented adolescence, and her tragic adult life, climaxing in an unforgettable ending.
