WMEN (1981)

Overview

WMEN evokes 1965, as indicated by the music cues. So, in the period before the Stonewall demonstrations by queer activists, including drag and trans activists, against the oppression of police raids. WMEN feels very much in conversation with Godard’s Breathless, with the collage of cutout magazine figures, its tongue-in-cheek nature, its sexiness, the fashion, and the playfulness.
