The doc telegraphs his powerful 30-year career from its unlikely origins inside the punk/queer squats of Brixton in the late 1970s to the world's most significant museums like the Tate Modern in the 21st century. The unprecedented use of his own blood in live performance is just one of many radical and groundbreaking tropes that have defined Franko's work -- work that is founded on pushing the physical and emotional limits of himself, his audience, the art world, and the culture-at-large.

They came for the hormones and stayed for the health-care. In the 'bad old days' transgendered folks usually mistrusted the health care system, and often faced life-and-death situations without any help. But 18 years ago a team of HIV providers at a clinic in San Francisco and trans activists from every ethnicity broke the mold They opened the country's first Primary Care clinic opened specifically for transgendered people. The warm narratives of these 12 pioneering patients provide the film's beating heart, revealing some harrowing places they have been. Yet by the film's end their stories provide a sense of victory and hope for future generations, proving this can and should be the standard across the continent.

Matt's idea seemed simple enough: document the contradictory attraction and detraction of a modern city on the eve of the new millennium. His plan seemed foolproof: throw 20 darts at a map of Los Angeles and conduct an interview wherever they land. Matt didn't anticipate the security guards, Mexican gangs and traffic jams that thwart his every move. In the zero hour, his project gets a second chance when two eccentric interviewees hijack the film and introduce Matt to the handgun and narcotics school of flow-budget filmmaking. During the drug fueled, soul-searching journey into the apocalyptic underworld of Los Angeles that follows, the unlikely group begins to realize that it's not just a film but also their survival that's at stake. With desperation mounting, the foursome rushes towards the end of the millennium and an ending that none of them could have scripted.
