Product Overview

Relying heavily on improvisation and spontaneity in crafting stories of queer identity and loss, Angie Black's independent debut feature collapses numerous narrative and aesthetic boundaries. As Gabrielle O'Brien argues, the film's matter-of-fact representation of a marginalised milieu, single-take cabaret-act intrusions and insistent focus on the tactile combine to create a rare work that is radical in both content and form.
