International Women’s Day is coming up, so let’s talk about Billie Holiday: She broke rules, broke through, and left a mark that still hits hard today 👊 People know her for her fight for Black liberation, but her story is also about women who refuse to back down. Billie faced the worst and still kept singing. Her voice, her grit, her pain—they all echo what it means to keep going, no matter what.
On Thursday, March 5, Bio Bio is showcasing the documentary ‘Billie’ (2019). Journalist Linda Lipnack Keuhl spent years collecting over 200 hours of interviews, and the result is raw, unfiltered, and real. You see Billie’s battles and her wins, the mess and the magic of being a Black woman and an artist. Restored, colorized footage puts you right in the room with her—her voice, her presence, still alive more than 60 years after she left us.
Join us as we gather in Sigurd CPH’s nightclub and watch footage from Billie Holiday’s repertoire of nightclub performances, from a career that was too short but extremely impactful nonetheless. Rediscover the legendary artist, learn about her struggles from the people who were closest to her, and dwell on the fact that even though women’s rights might not be equal to men’s even in 2026, society has come a long way since the 40s — thanks to, among many strong women, Billie Holiday.
