PREMIERING OCTOBER 22! Produced by Everywoman Studios For MTV Entertainment Studios, Film Takes A Look Behind the Scenes of the “She Is The Music Songwriting Camp”
We are excited to announce that Everywoman Studios’ newest documentary, Uncharted, premieres today, 10/22 on Paramount+. Uncharted is a candid look at the music industry and a powerful group of women trying to change it. Alicia Keys, Ann Mincieli, Jody Gerson, and Sam Kirby aim to get more women on the charts through their organization, She Is The Music. Through the lens of race and gender, the documentary follows emerging artists at a life-changing songwriting camp put on by Alicia Keys. The film follows their exciting but hard year ahead as they find their footing in a male-dominated industry. An intimate portrait of rising stars over the course of a year, Uncharted reveals the impossible odds women face in music and how things can change one song at a time. Uncharted had its world premiere in 2023 at The Tribeca Film Festival and streams today on Paramount+.
The film follows female artists who attend a once in a lifetime songwriting camp helmed by Alicia Keys and her nonprofit organization, She Is The Music. A personal look at the music industry through the lens of emerging artists, Uncharted, is an intimate portrait of these rising stars and the pressures and challenges they face in an industry offering little access for success.
Uncharted is directed and produced by Beth Aala and executive produced by Abby Greensfelder, Katie Couric, Abigail Rodriguez, Brenda Robinson, Regina K. Scully and Geralyn White Dreyfous and Alicia Keys. Jody Gerson, Ann Mincieli, Sam Kirby Yoh, Dr. Stacy Smith and Michelle Arkuski serve as executive producers for She Is The Music.
