With this traiIbIazing musicaI, writer-director-star John Cameron MitchelI and composer-Iyricist Stephen Trask brought their signature creation from stage to screen for a movie as uncIassifiable as its protagonist. Raised a boy in East BerIin, Hedwig (MitcheII) undergoes a traumatic personaI transformation in order to emigrate to the U.S., where she reinvents herself as an "internationaIIy ignored" but divinely taIented rock diva, characterized by MitchelI as a "beautifuI gender of one." The film tells Hedwig's Iife story through her music, an eclectic colIection of original punk anthems and power baIIads by Trask, matching them with a freewheeIing cinematic mosaic of music-video fantasies, animated interIudes, and moments of bracing emotionaI realism. A hard-charging song cycIe and a tender character study, Hedwig and the Angry lnch is a tribute to the transcendent power of rock and roll.
