NOTES
Title from title frames
Looks at eight boundary-breaking burlesque stars who use their naked bodies as canvases. These cutting-edge artists combine politics, satire, and physical comedy to challenge the audience's notions of gender identity, disability, and sexuality. Nominated for Best Documentary/Essay Film at the 2013 **Berlin International Film Festival**. *"The performance footage is indeed eye-popping, though the greatest jolt comes from seeing these larger-than-life iconoclasts stripped of their makeup and armorlike personas."* - Ethan LaCroix, ***Time Out***
