In honor of the Peaches concert on August 7th, we are showing the recent documentary 'Teaches of Peaches' one more time. Concert attendees receive a 50% discount!

This captivating documentary, whose title is taken from her second album, celebrates the career of one of contemporary music's icons. Exciting lyrics and music, cool hairstyles, and bodysuits made of pubic hair. That's how we first saw Peaches; the provocative and incomparable feminist electroclash musician and artist. It quickly became clear that she was much more than her music, as this film makes evident.

Peaches helped kick open the doors for women in music to speak more openly about sex, identity, anger, and their own uncompromising artistry. Two decades later, Peaches prepares for the 20th-anniversary tour of her groundbreaking album. 'Teaches of Peaches' combines spectacular footage from this "The Teaches of Peaches Anniversary Tour 2022" with exclusive private archive material and candid interviews with collaborators, admirers, and loved ones (including Leslie Feist, Chilly Gonzalez, and Shirley Manson). It serves as a reminder of how groundbreaking this artist is. Winner of the Teddy Award for Best Documentary at the Berlinale 2024.

Please note: The Melkweg often hosts different types of programs simultaneously, such as concerts, club nights, and films. Be aware that there may occasionally be noise from other programs during the screening.
