Synopsis
Manhattan drag queens Noxeema Jackson and Vida Boheme head to Hollywood for a glamorous pageant, taking their protégé Chi-Chi Rodriguez along for the cross-country drive. After a car failure, the trio gets stranded in a sleepy rural town, where their glittering personas attract new friends and foes.
Editorial
From the bold casting of actions stars Patrick Swayze and Wesley Snipes, to its reinvention of the road-trip film, Beeban Kidron’s cult comedy brought drag culture to the mainstream. Fighting small-town prejudice with camp and humor, this heartfelt tale of queer resillience opens hearts and minds.
