Underplayed

Electronic music was born from the ideals of diversity, community, and inclusivity, and yet in 2019 only five of Billboard’s top 100 DJs were women.

Filmed over the summer festival season, New Zealand-born director Stacey Lee’s Underplayed presents a portrait of gender, ethnic, and sexual equality issues through the female pioneers, next-generation artists, and industry leaders who are championing change. Ultimately, the film explores gender disparity that transcends music and finds relevance in many of today’s industries. It will leave you pumping your fist in solidarity with these DJs while simultaneously bopping your head to their infectious beats.
