A documentary profile on Rumi Missabu, the iconoclast cofounder of San Francisco's infamous Cockettes. Through archive footage, animation and new interviews with stars from SF's queer art past, his lurid tales in and out of the spotlight are revealed as he reinvents himself at the end of his life.

Elevator Girls in Bondage

ELEVATOR GIRLS IN BONDAGE ups the ante by taking on not just the Republicans but the entire capitalist system and its oppression of the working class. The underpaid staff of a seedy hotel rises up in revolt, and by the time head elevator girl Maxine (the fabulous Rumi) starts spouting a surreal mix of folk songs and Marxist maxims, followed by an uproariously explicit sex scene, you’ll be ready to join the cause. Rarely has the dissection of economic exploitation been so silly, or so much fun to watch.
