”Avant-Drag!” offers an exhilarating look at ten Athenian drag performers who deconstruct the notions of gender, nationalism, belonging, and identity.

Not since ”Paris is Burning” has queer culture been observed so profoundly, yet they’ve captured their own stories this time. ”Avant-Drag!” offers an exhilarating look at ten Athenian drag performers who deconstruct the notions of gender, nationalism, belonging, identity, and police brutality proving that being othered never felt so familiar. ”Avant-Drag” is a thought-provoking documentary with the potential to challenge societal norms and reshape perceptions about LGBTQ+ individuals because we have captured the intimate lives of ten compelling drag performers in all their glory (warts and all).
