The documentary about Witch Club Satan, the band that became an international phenomenon overnight
In the heart of Norway's powerful black metal scene, a new force suddenly arises. Nikoline, Victoria and Johanna make a three-year pact in which they will dedicate their entire lives to awakening the world, each other and themselves as witches. In record time, the trio goes from being unable to play or growl to becoming a global phenomenon that is booked for major international festivals and world tours. Witch Club Satan is not only a feminist black metal band that has taken the audience by storm, it is also a project that demands more from the women than they could have imagined. We follow the trio on their path to finding their primal power – through the ups and downs of the band's first three years. It gets dark, raw, honest and bloody.
