| Summary |
One of the contemporary art world’s most acclaimed mixed-media and performance artists, the masked Narcissister is the subject of this smart, sassy documentary that showcases her spectacle-rich approach to explorations of gender, racial identity and sexuality. Directed by the enigmatic artist herself, the film deconstructs her celebrated stage shows which combine dance, elaborate costumes, pop music hits, unabashed eroticism and heavy doses of humor. No stranger to the spotlight, Narcissister reveals more than she ever has before, going behind her iconic mask to provide a thrilling, profound and utterly moving experience. Nominated for the Chicken & Egg Award at the **SXSW Film Festival.** Official Selection at the **Sundance Film Festival.** *"The contradictory goals of the film seem fitting,, given the nature of Narcissister's art, and she reconciles them well." - Ben Kenigsberg, **The New York Times*** |
