Made for arts slot Artsville, In Bed With Anika Moa follows on from Justin Pemberton's earlier film about the singer/songwriter, 3 Chords & the Truth (2003). Always a searingly honest personality and performer, Moa navigates a tumultous period after walking away from a major American recording deal. She relocates to Melbourne to promote her third album and combats loneliness, frustration and ambition without the buffer of one on one management. While Australia proves a brutal market to crack career wise, Moa falls in love and comes out as a lesbian, a truth she admits she always struggled with.
