CGiii Comment

Gawd...some people talk absolute crap. This film is littered with them...I identify as Cyborg...oh bugger off.

Baur has no idea...a fascinating subject defaced by inadequacy, irrelevance and incompetence.

The live performances are gruelingly unfunny, the interviews are tediously long.

The worthy interviewees are lost amid the unworthy...I identify as Cyborg...

No surprises as to why this appears to be her last film.


Trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...

A film journey through a universe of female masculinity. A legendary Drag King Night in New York is the point of departure for an odyssey to transgendered worlds, where women become men - some for a night, others for their whole lives. What motivates them? What changes take place? What do they dream of? The drag kings of New York meet in clubs and change lustfully into their male alter egos, parodying them and exploring male eroticism and power strategies. In London we see women experiment with hormones to become new men and 'cyborgs'. Masculinity and transformation as performance, subversion or existential necessity.
