"It's the story...the origin of love."

HEDGWIG & THE ANGRY INCH

 "Filmed with ferocious energy and with enough sexual variety to match late Fellini, it may be on its way to a long run as the midnight successor to The Rocky Horror Picture Show."
- Roger Ebert

"One way of looking at this clever, funny, wildly inventive film tricked out with surreal pop embellishments and Day-Glo colors is to see it as the kind of movie David Bowie might have made had he pushed his early 70s gender-bending persona to its logical limit."
- Stephen Holden, the New York Times

A German immigrant living in a trailer in Kansas is the victim of a botched sex-change operation. Adapted from the critically acclaimed off-Broadway rock theater hit, Hedwig and the Angry Inch tells the story of the "internationally ignored" rock singer, Hedwig, and her search for stardom and love.
