Description

This collection of shorts takes a broad look at the vast spectrum of gender identity. These filmmakers express a diversity of views and interpretations of what it means to be male, female, both, or neither and of the consequences of being a gender outlaw in such a straight and narrow world. Robin Ward is a transsexual shaman praying for the spirit to set us all free in ETHER ANVIL. The transformative power of packing is explored in ME AND MY STRAP-ON, while the KINGS OF NEW YORK is a quick look into the secret world of breast-binding, pants-stuffing Drag Kings. CHRISTOPHER'S CHRONICLES: CHAPTER 1 is a video diary about the fears and realities of female to male sex reassignment. TRAPPINGS OF TRANSHOOD discusses the ins & outs of Trans/boy/hood. And MURDER AND THE FEATHER BOA draws upon interviews with key figures in Chiapas, Mexico, to paint a portrait of a transvestite culture which thrives in the midst of brutal murders and omnipresent corruption.
