Look Away is a 2021 British documentary film about the sexual abuse of young girls in the rock music industry. The film is directed by Sophie Cunningham and Ben Steele, and produced by Sky Documentaries.
The film's title is derived a track of the same name on Iggy Pop's 1996 album Naughty Little Doggie, which is a "tribute" to one of the most famous "baby groupies" on Sunset Strip in the 1970s, Sable Starr. The track of the same name mentions in its lyrics that Pop slept with Starr when she was 13, with none of the reviews of the album addressing the lyrics.
Look Away is built around extensive interviews with Kari Krome, the Runaways' bass guitarist Jackie Fuchs, and Julia Holcomb. The documentary describes several rapes and other sexual abuse, including a detailed account of the alleged rape of Jackie Fuchs by her band's then-manager Kim Fowley. It also tells the story of the relationship between Julia Holcomb and Aerosmith's Steven Tyler as well as the alleged sexual assault of former Penthouse Pet, model, and actress Sheila Kennedy at the hands of Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose, and offers interviews of other people with experiences of sexual abuse in the United States rock scene in the 70s and 80s.
According to Cunningham, the purpose of the film "is not necessarily about seeking justice in the legal sense, but having a voice – and trying to instigate change. Although we are focusing on a certain era in this film, the music industry is still functioning in a very, very similar way."

This is just a bit surreal. V and Jackie Chan - not a combination I ever expected to see.
