A sensual and moving exploration of femininity and the basic desire of belonging,
TURNING is an examination of the critically acclaimed European touring collaboration
of musician Antony Hegarty (of the renowned band Antony and the Johnsons) and videographer
Charles Atlas, featuring 13 remarkable women, most of whom are transgender or queer.
While Antony performs enchanting melodies, eachwoman is profiled as a video portraiture
unfurls behind her. Intimate and inspiring behind-thescenes interviews create a fascinating
cinematic experience that reveals themes of identity, transcendence, and (as Antony
reminds the entourage) "dignity and beauty."
