Directed by Kimberly Reed | 85 min | USA |
Venus Xtravaganza emerged as a global trans icon after being featured as a glamorous “ball walker” in the groundbreaking 1991 documentary PARIS IS BURNING.
Venus was murdered before that film’s release, and now, decades later, I’M YOUR VENUS picks up a trail gone cold as her two families—biological and ballroom—come together to honour her legacy, seek answers about her killing, and in the process, find unexpected common ground.
This is an absolute must-see film about the power of love and family – those we’re born into, and those we choose.
