Madame X

Madame X

(Lucky Kuswandi / Indonesia / 2010 / Fiction / 90min)

In this Indonesian-styled Priscilla Queen of the Desert, our transsexual superhero goes up against Mr. Storm, The National Morality Front and his deadly burqa-clad wives. Variety calls it, “FABULOUS”!

A candy-colored, fast-paced tale of a pre-op transsexual superhero from Indonesia who fights intolerance. (Boyd Van Hoeij on https://variety.com/2011/film/reviews/madame-x-1117945001/)
