I AM DIVINE is a documentary film focusing on the American actor, singer and drag queen Divine, born Harris Glenn Milstead, a life-long friend and collaborator of John Waters.

"In I AM DIVINE, bolstered by plentiful interviews with Waters and other collaborators, Schwarz effectively turns Milstead into the life of a party that didn't really end with his death in 1988." -John Hartl, Seattle Times

"It's hard to go wrong with a movie about famed drag queen Divine, and director Jeffrey Schwarz certainly doesn't in I AM DIVINE, a serious documentary about this gloriously trashy trailblazer." -David Lewis, San Fransisco Chronicle
