98 minutes, dir Sam H Freeman, Ng Choon Ping

Jules’ (Nathan Stewart-Jarrett ) life and career as a drag queen is destroyed by a homophobic attack. But when he re-encounters his attacker, the deeply-closeted Preston (George MacKay), in a gay sauna, he is presented with a chance to exact revenge. Unrecognizable out of his wig and make-up, Jules infiltrates Preston’s life, and in doing so, discovers power in a different kind of drag.
