Go beyond the drama, the hype and the sequins with this refreshingly candid look at superstar figure skater Johnny Weir. The filmmakers followed Weir for two years, through the ups and downs of competitions, battles with his longtime coach and multiple voguing sessions with his best friend Paris. Never one to be shy, Weir unabashedly unleashes his flamboyant personality, and the resulting portrait is as moving as it is surprising.

IN COLLABORATION WITH: GLIDE (GAYS AND LESBIANS INITIATING DIALOGUE FOR EQUALITY), LONG BEACH GAY & LESBIAN CENTER OF GREATER LONG BEACH and UCLA LGBT CAMPUS RESOURCE CENTER
