Caravan of Dreams
Local filmmaker Christopher Gomersall's unflinching documentary offers an uncensored peek in the inner sanctum of drag, showcasing the every day activities and psyches of a variety of real-life female impersonators in Florida and Texas, including Fort Worth's own Rhonda Mae, Foxie Roxie and Miss Carlotta. From recollections of life in drag in the 1960s to a more recent late-in-life coming out, Queens provides amusing and enlightening insight into the drag world. The film recently took home a Best Alternative Documentary award at this year's New York International Independent Film & Video Festival. Gommersall and his three local subjects will be on hand to answer questions after the screening.
