While spending 15 weeks in lockdown as a result of the COVID pandemic, Pretenders frontwoman Chrissie Hynde was inspired to take on the ultimate creative challenge: reimagining a selection of timeless songs from the catalog of one of music’s most influential artists, Bob Dylan. It captures Hynde in her own words, providing insight into the creative process of the prolific songstress as she reflects on this landmark journey.
Blending interviews and exclusive footage with Hynde, Pretenders guitarist James Walbourne, and music producer Tchad Blake, the 90-minute feature brings Hynde’s painstaking tribute to life—exploring what initially drove her to cover some of Dylan’s most important works, while shining a light on the immense passion she has for her craft, presenting unforgettable renditions of Dylan’s songs performed in Hynde’s signature style, sharing rare glimpses of Hynde’s personal paintings, and much more.
Produced by London based media company White Light Film Productions, the film treats viewers to several of Dylan’s masterworks recreated by Hynde, including ‘60s standouts “Tomorrow Is A Long Time” and “Love Minus Zero;” as well as the ‘70s cut “You’re A Big Girl Now;” 80’s tracks “Blind Willie McTell,” “Don’t Fall Apart On Me Tonight,” “Sweetheart Like You” and “Every Grain Of Sand;” and ‘90s favorite “Standing In The Doorway.”
