Lisa Rovner’s archival documentary celebrates the women whose breakthroughs in early electronic music laid the foundations of modern electronic styles. The focus falls on about nine or 10 women in the field, including experimental music pioneer Clara Rockmore, British composer and mathematician Delia Derbyshire who co-created the 'Doctor Who' theme, and Suzanne Ciani, the first woman to score a major Hollywood movie - 'The Incredible Shrinking Woman' in 1981. Guardian gave it five stars, describing it as "superb" and "electrifying". The Wall Street Journal starts with a provocative premise: "that the frontiers of electronic music were blazed by women".

“The history of women has been a story of silence, and music is no exception” - Lisa Rovner told Dazed about her documentary 'Sisters with Transistors' which tells the story of (almost) forgotten women who helped invent and create electronic music. The film is narrated by Laurie Anderson, features guest appearances by Aura Satz, Holly Herndon, and Kim Gordon, and it tells the stories of women like Bebe Barron who composed the first completely electronic score for any mainstream film, for 1956’s 'Forbidden Planet'.
