Transsexual drag queen film Our Love premieres in China
Transsexual drag queen film Our Love premieres in China A film challenging the mainstream acceptance of transsexuals and drag queens will be shown in China. Filmmaker Jiang Zhi's film, "Our Love," the hidden voice of China's drag queens, is based on the lives of three queens living in Shenzhen's underworld. Jiang Zhi's adventure with transsexuals began after he overheard a friend talking about a local bar with drag performers. That's where he met his muse Ping'er, and her friends Xiang Xiang and Teresa, who all play major roles in the film. One of them has an affair with an unsuspecting straight male in the film. Jiang Zhi says, "Ideally this film will show that they are beautiful, feminine and ordinary people with hopes and dreams. I also hope my film will help people to understand and create a place for them in society."�[Date: 08-Jul-05 ]
