Space Lady is a portrait of 71-year-old musician Susan Schneider (aka ‘The Space Lady’) who, after 30 years of homelessness and busking, is beginning to receive notoriety for her early contributions to electronic pop music thanks to its being shared online. Shot on 16mm, the film explores Susan's past as she tells it verbally, but focuses first and foremost on sensory, observational details from her present life in rural Colorado —namely, her struggle to reclaim the music from the pain that encompasses it.
