The Gender Bender
••0.0/10
Movie Overview
Meet Winston, self-proclaimed "gender illusionist" and 90s nightclub host extraordinaire, in this edition of Channel 4 series The Black Bag. In-house MC for legendary club night Kinky Gerlinky, the charismatic Guyana-born Winston is whip-smart, with some incisive things to say about gender, race and the Brits' repressed approach to sex. We join him in a whirl of photoshoots, rehearsals, hanging out with creative pals like milliner Philip Treacy, and finally putting on the show itself at Kinky's final home, the Empire Ballroom, Leicester Square (now a casino). This was the place to be.
