Joan Baez I Am a Noise is a 2023 documentary film about the iconic folk singer and activist Joan Baez. It’s not a traditional biography or concert film. Instead, it offers an intimate look at Baez through previously unseen archival footage, including home movies, artwork, diaries, therapy tapes, and audio recordings.
“I first saw Bob Dylan in 1961 at Gerde’s Folk City in Greenwich Village. He was not overly impressive. He looked like an urban hillbilly, with hair short around the ears and curly on top.”
― Joan Baez,
“Maybe that afternoon was the closest I ever felt to Bob: his eyes were as old as God, and he was fragile as a winter leaf.”―
“She looked like a religious icon, like somebody you’d sacrifice yourself for” Bob Dylan on Joan Baez
