A nonbinary femme teacher embarks on a thrilling journey of love, resilience and discovery

Description

An innovative film that astonishes with its dynamic tone and vibrancy, ASOG is a surprising piece of trans cinema, combining road movie and docu-drama with sharp wit and emotional depth. Set in the wake of a devastating typhoon, the film follows REY, a nonbinary Filipino school teacher, on an exhilarating road trip to a drag pageant. Along the way, REY navigates a landscape scarred by climate change while handling a romantic relationship that must endure the storm’s aftermath and becoming a guardian to a young student searching for his father. Executive produced by Adam McKay and Alan Cumming, ASOG offers a unique exploration of solidarity and recovery. Co-writer and director Seán Devlin’s visionary work is a must-see for fans of LGBTQ+ cinema.
