| Summary |
Club Casanova, home of the legendary Drag King Night in New York, is the point of departure for an odyssey to the transgender world. It's a world where women become men - some for a night, others for a lifetime. The film stars renowned Drag Kings Mo B. Dick, DRED Gerestant, Storme Webber, Diane Torr, Del la Grace Volcano, and Bridge Markland, all women who dress, perform, and/or live as men, with appearances by legendary Drag Queens Mistress Formika and Queen Bee Luscious. WINNER! Best Film: Semaine de la Critique at Locarno. "An utterly fascinating, beautifully crafted exploration of the world of drag kings." - Variety. "A provocative travelogue through [an] unexplored frontier, a mixed-up, shook-up borderland where nothing, especially not an individual's gender, should be taken for granted." - TV Guide. "Offers considerable illumination on the lives of those who live and thrive along sexuality's margins." - Newsday. |
