“Every street has a story.” Sticks & Stones is an intimate documentary about a song,
a street, and a diva. Bambi Lake, a notorious San Francisco transgender performer
and entertainer, takes us on a stroll down Polk Street, sharing anecdotes and the
history behind her song Golden Age of Hustlers, which was written about her time as
a street hustler in the mid-70’s. She landed on Polk Street after a stint with the
Cockettes and prior to regular gigs at renowned 80s/90spunk venue, the Mabuhey Gardens.
