Jaywalking
DIRECTORS' STATEMENT
When we first met Jay Walker, we knew we had found our King. Jay embodied both the charisma and sex appeal of the modern day drag king. As we got to know the San Francisco drag king community, we were constantly impressed by the intelligence and vibrancy of all its members—from the seasoned performers to the rising stars. They forced us to re-evaluate our own notions of gender and identity. Whether we were shooting at the legendary Trannyshack or on the street with Jay, our production process proved to be an educational and entertaining undertaking for us both.
