In the vibrant heart of Calgary's music scene, a powerful new voice emerges from the underground. The short documentary "GRRRL STYLE YYC" captures the raw energy and defiant spirit of a collective of young women and non-binary artists as they forge their own space in a male-dominated industry. Through the experiences of musicians like Maya Calvez, Helen Arias, and Arielle McCuaig, the film explores the challenges and triumphs of creating authentic punk and alternative music on their own terms.

Directed by Cass Gayowski, this intimate portrait follows the journeys of artists including Liv Konrad, Jerdyn Dionisio, and Yvanna Menjivar as they navigate the complexities of identity, community, and artistic expression. With a backdrop of gritty DIY shows and heartfelt collaboration, the film delves into the central question of what it means to build a supportive scene from the ground up. Featuring the perspectives of Tuula Gould and Finley Lawrance, "GRRRL STYLE YYC" is a compelling and urgent snapshot of a musical revolution, pulsating with the raw honesty and unapologetic passion of its subjects.
