    The People's Joker

    Vera DREW 2022 USA color 92min DCP
    This revolutionary DIY parody film and hilarious reimagining of the classic autobiographical coming-of-age story follows an unconfident, closeted trans girl as she moves to Gotham City to make it big as a comedian. Helmed by writer-director-editor-star Vera DREW and using her own life experiences as a basis for the film, The People’s Joker is a deeply personal journey that's as much documentary as it is parody.
