Hedwig and the Angry Inch

Aroview: Robbed of his rightful place in rock history by a former protégé, transsexual rocker Hedwig is resigned to playing on the lowest rung of the tour circuit in this sensational musical portrait adapted from the successful New York stage show.

Invigorated by the balls-out central performance from writer-director John Cameron Mitchell, he pastes animation, flashback and musical vignettes on a collage of camp tragicomedy. Carries genuine cult appeal for those that acquire the musical taste - written by Stephen Trask, and inspired by Ziggy Stardust-period Bowie. Winner of Best Director at Sundance 2001.
