Born in secret in India, adopted by American missionaries, and raised in Canada, Bif’s journey has been anything but typical. She found her voice in the underground punk scene of the late ‘80s and early ‘90s, quickly rising to prominence with her raw, emotionally charged lyrics and undeniable stage presence. As she ascended to rock stardom, she became a symbol of empowerment, a beacon for misfits, and an outspoken advocate for causes close to her heart. But her story isn’t just about fame. It’s about survival. Bif has faced and overcome extraordinary challenges—cancer, addiction, sexual assault, and a brutal music industry that often sought to silence her. Yet, through it all, she remained unbreakable, turning her pain into poetry and her struggles into anthems. Told through exclusive interviews, rare archival footage, and anthemic performances, BIF NAKED is a deep dive into the life of a woman who has lived and loved fearlessly. It’s about the cost of authenticity, the power of perseverance, and the undeniable impact of an artist who continues
to define and redefine herself. With Bif Naked, George Stroumboulopoulos, Doug Fury, Chiko Misomali, Peter Karroll.

This is Bif Naked—unfiltered, unstoppable, and louder than ever.
