In this tender and endearing comedy, two drag queens and a transgendered woman climb aboard their lavender bus (Priscilla) to travel through the Australian desert to perform at a remote resort. Along the way, the three friends encounter stranger characters and homophobia — all while widening their comfort zones and finding new horizons.

John Waters’ comedy is as tacky as its namesake fabric… in the very best way. When a suburban housewife, frustrated by her unfaithful husband, delinquent son, and pregnant teenage daughter, meets a handsome stranger — her life becomes much more interesting and colorful. 

Saim Sadiq’s film explores the many sides of love and desire in a patriarchal society. Gentle and timid, Haider lives with his wife Mumtaz(, his father, and his elder brother’s family in Lahore, Pakistan. Following a long spell of unemployment, he finally lands a job at a Bollywood-style burlesque, telling his family he is a theater manager, when in actuality, he is a backup dancer. As he acclimates to the new job, Haider becomes infatuated with the strong-willed trans woman Biba who runs the show—an unforeseen partnership that opens his eyes and ultimately his worldview, in ways both unexpected and intimate.

Strength Now. Courage Always. Family, Above All. Batman and Robin!
