The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert

Directed by Stephan Elliott
Finally, a comedy that will change the way you think, the way you feel, and most importantly... the way you dress.

Two drag queens and a transgender woman contract to perform a drag show at a resort in Alice Springs, a town in the remote Australian desert. As they head west from Sydney aboard their lavender bus, Priscilla, the three friends come to the forefront of a comedy of errors, encountering a number of strange characters, as well as incidents of homophobia, whilst widening comfort zones and exploring new horizons.
