GENDER FEATURES

Dressed as a Girl
by Colin Rothbart|2015 UK
Screening supported by The British Consulate General in Shanghai

Filmmaker Colin Rothbart pulls off the wigs and wipes away the mascara to unveil the real people behind the much hyped and talked about East London’s alternative drag scene. Overeating, gender dysphoria, egos, excess. Filmed over five years, the film covers not only the rise and fall of this hugely popular gay club scene but also offers some personal, emotionally honest portraits of six individuals at the heart of it. Fundamentally it’s about the nature of friendship, life and even survival against the odds, universal themes that everyone can relate to.
