CGiii Comment

A cursory introduction to some very interesting people, some more known than others...they paved the way!

All of the European accents are wrong. The writing is more self-congratulatory than informative.

Still, pioneers...sadly, not a pioneering film!


Watch...

The(ir) Blurb...

A documentary series exploring the lives of queer artists who dared to be themselves fully. Pioneers of gender fluidity as well as art shapeshifters.
