Synopsis

A trans woman and aspiring actress in 1960s Hollywood documents her meteoric rise through a series of diary entries, each one more outrageous than the last. Gore Vidal's satirical masterpiece skewers gender norms, the film industry, and American masculinity with razor-sharp wit and unapologetic camp.
