Riot Acts



This is a trailer for the documentary called “Riot Acts.” It is about trans-genders in the music industry. It is a representation of the intersections between gender performance and stage performance. I think it emphasizes the importance of speaking your mind and being who you are. Music helps to really express oneself, and at times can be controversial. When it comes to trans genders, more problems arise. “Riot Acts” highlights some of the issues that the trans gender musicians interviewed experience, such as songwriting, voice/body presentation, performing gender, and more.
