Getting a recording contract with a major American label is the dream of many young musicians. Maori New Zealander Anika Moa was given such a chance at just 18 years old. 3 Chords & The Truth tracks the first 20 months of Anita's foray into the international music scene. When she travels to America to begin the publicity campaign for her first album, reality comes crashing in and Anika has to face the choice between her artistic integrity and satisfying the demands of her label. Billed as the "Next Big Thing," the siren songs of fame and fortune begin negotiating for their price - her identity. While music executives all recognize her unique talent, 'commercial realities' compel them to reshape Moa into yet another marketing dream. 3 Chords & the Truth travels down this life-transforming path with Moa while exposing the cut-throat ruthlessness of the music industry. Behind the pretty faces and whirlwind tours lies an inspiring story of a remarkable talent and undefeatable spirit, all set to a dreamy soundtrack.
