Join us at Row House Cinema for a special screening of Venus of Mars, followed by a Q&A with director Emily Goldberg and Venus de Mars herself, glam rock icon, trans pioneer, and lead singer of All the Pretty Horses. There's more, keep the night going at Trace Brewing (4312 Main St) with a live performance by Venus and local trans musician Levi. A celebration of music, identity, and rock!
Venus of Mars
On stage, wearing a vinyl corset and stiletto boots, s/he's Venus, lead singer of the glam rock band All The Pretty Horses. At home in Minneapolis with Lynette, her wife of twenty years, s/he's Steve. Born male, Venus is transgender. S/he's "in between" — taking female hormones, but not planning to have sexual reassignment surgery. To some, s/he's a pioneer, courageously exploring a brave new world of gender identity, free of categorization. To others, s/he's a freak. VENUS OF MARS is both the unique coming out story of Venus' gender-redefining journey, and the truly contemporary love story of a couple weathering dramatic changes in uncharted relationship territory.
