About Adventures in The Gender Trade
This documentary explores the notion of gender through the life and work of transexual lesbian playwright, Kate Bornstein. Poet Pat Califia, performance artist Justin Bond, author of ‘100 Years of Homosexuality’ David Halprin and female-to-make transexual, Jack Ireland, questions the usefulness of society’s rigid gender system with humour and intelligence.
Directed by Susan Marenco, Adventures in The Gender Trade leans on a strong ensemble — Kate Bornstein, Pat Califia, Justin Bond — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 1994.
