The Queens

About This Movie

The Queens takes you on an intimate, two-year journey with some of drag's most colorful personalities. You’ve got Jinkx Monsoon and Sharon Needles, both of whom bring their unique flair to the forefront. Then there's Alaska Thunderf*ck, who’s not just a performer but a phenomenon in her own right. And let’s not forget Katya, whose wit and charm are off the charts. The pacing is casual, letting you soak in the behind-the-scenes life, the struggles, and the triumphs. The atmosphere feels genuine, almost like a hangout with friends rather than a formal documentary. The performances are raw and real, revealing the complexities of their lives beyond the wigs and lashes. It’s a peek into a vibrant world that often goes unseen.
