Criminal Queers

2013 · 70 min

A dense, essayistic collage that asks you to think alongside it rather than follow a story.

Genres
Drama
Overview
Criminal Queers visualizes a radical trans/queer struggle against the prison industrial complex and toward a world without walls. Remembering that prison breaks are both a theoretical and material practice of freedom, this film imagines what spaces might be opened up if crowbars, wigs, and metal files become tools for transformation.
How it feels
Measured and demanding.
