Queen Obscene is the working title of a documentary film by Amanda M. Jansson and Volk Kinetshniy. With homophobia and simultaneously also drag culture strongly present in Greece, the directors are getting a taste of both as they dive into the world of Lil Botox, a young, small-town drag queen with big plans on taking over the world. Through her gripping story, Queen Obscene uncovers the reality and struggles of being outspoken, and gloriously different in a country, where being gay can still become a reason for lynching. The film hopes to create visibility for LGBTQ youth by helping them realize they are not alone and encouraging them to embrace who they are. Amidst grey, poverty-stricken neighborhoods there are drag queen heroines, a beacon of glitter, and they are here to stay. 

The documentary is powered by DRECK Magazine and is still in production.
