Subversive genius, pioneering provocateur, reluctant pornographer: all describe queercore filmmaker Bruce LaBruce, whose transgressive aesthetic has maddened and enchanted audiences for decades. Evolving from quiet Ontario farm boy to the toast of the Toronto and New York underground scenes, LaBruce became the master of reinvention, his punk attitude infusing his low-budget films with hardcore gay sex, schlock horror, and sophisticated political commentary. Archival clips of his rough, seductive films (including LA ZOMBIE, SLGFF 2010) combine with penetrating interpretation and anecdotes from collaborators and admirers (Gus Van Sant and John Waters among them) to form a fascinating portrait of a singular talent.
