HUNKY JESUS

An unforgettable feature documentary that thoroughly and delightfully explores the legacy of the San Francisco chapter of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a global, secular order of queer and trans “nuns” who combat guilt, shame, and exclusion through joy, humor, activism, and irreverence, serving their communities while challenging bigotry and redefining spirituality. Director Kroot brought us the classic “The Untold Tales of Armistead Maupin.”

(Directed by Maya Avidov, Documentary Short, U.K., 12 min)

Founded in 1972 by sculptor Andrew Logan, “The Alternative Miss World” began as a celebration of transformation and unorthodox beauty. This is a story about a man who threw a party, with artists like David Hockney & Derek Jarman, which birthed a globally renowned event, which led to a film, which led to a lawsuit, and which in turn led to a legacy.
