Synopsis
Silas Howard’s latest documentary on Bambi Lake, a landmark transsexual punk rocker from San Francisco’s fringe art scene. Howard’s documentary covers the story of a young woman who finds herself in the midst of a red light district lifestyle in San Francisco, who eventually found her ways on stage opening for David Bowie. The 15-minute film touches upon the early, pre-AIDS epidemic queer scene filled with promiscuity and hustling that Bambi called home.
