Queer Persons of Color: Art ≧ Rage It goes without saying that POC in cinema have had a long, ugly past. These stereotypes have evoked an insidious effect on how the world views us; as lack of representation has proven to be as damaging as misrepresentation. Inclusivity in front of and behind the camera are essential to moving forward and this program does both. WE are here. WE have always been here. WE have stories to tell.

Meet Miss Rosewood! Self-appointed transgender terrorist on New York hardcore performance scene, a walking scandal on high heels, and the only woman in town with enough balls to empty a condom into the hair of Leonardo DiCaprio. No limits are too sensitive to be transgressed by the fearless missus, who spreads both terror, horror, admiration, as well as bodily fluids left and right in an environment otherwise accustomed to pretty much everything. But there is a sensitive and likeable person behind the thick makeup and Helle Jensen has reached through to her in a film, which is not afraid to take 'a walk on the wild side', but which also joins Rosewood, backstage, where she has the name Jon Cory, and a family that has learned to understand the persona with whom she acts out her dreams and fantasies.
