Description
Hedwig is the 'internationally ignored' post punk, neo-glam rock legend who was an off-Broadway sensation and now comes to life in 'A HAND GRENADE OF A FILM' (-Andrew L. Urban) written, directed and starring the enormously talented
John Cameron Mitchell.
Born a boy in Communist East Berlin, Hansel makes the ultimate trans-gender transformation to get into the USA and becomes 'Hedwig' - an acid tongued modern incarnation of Ziggy Stardust, Frankenfurter, Farrah Fawcett and Mae West.
Bitter, broke and stranded in a Kansas trailer park, Hedwig puts on her best wig, make up, high heels and takes a walk on the wild side, touring America with her band 'The Angry Inch'.
Through a blistering collage of rock songs, flashbacks, wisecracks, animation, anguish and acid wash, Hedwig takes us on an unforgettable journey to discover the 'origins of love'.
