Holy Trinity Goes to Church
@ Mana Contemporary Chicago
2233 S Throop St, Chicago, IL 60608
Opening Sunday, June 11th, from 12PM - 4PM
Get behind the scenes of the film, “Holy Trinity”, in an open studio event featuring performances by drag performers Mood Killer, Glamhag, Cavenaw & Cavenis and more.
“Holy Trinity” is a feature film written, directed by, and starring Molly Hewitt, and produced by Full Spectrum Features NFP. “Holy Trinity” follows the story of Trinity, a queer girl from Chicago who huffs the contents of a magic aerosol can and develops the ability to talk to the dead. In one scene in the film, Trinity attends a night club and drag show called, “Church”, featuring performances from Chicago Drag Queens in religiously-inspired drag. The emphasis of Trinity going to this show is to highlight the importance of queer nightlife as a spiritual space for many people. The club as Church and nightlife as a religion; these Queens, club kids, and queers will be imitating and parodying organized religion to create their own unique place of worship.
