About the Film
Allee Willis was a force of nature—bold, brilliant, and unapologetically herself. The Grammy-winning songwriter behind September and I’ll Be There for You (yes, the Friends theme song!), Allee lived in a world as colourful as her wardrobe. But behind the electric prints and legendary house parties was a woman navigating the complexities of identity, creativity, and self-acceptance.
She spent her life documenting it all—from her Detroit childhood in the ’50s to the dizzying heights of success. Now, her ultimate wish comes to life: a documentary that stitches together her personal archive, her own words, and the voices of those who knew and loved her.
