Ah, Columbus. Such an odd little city.

Yes indeed and we were out to capture some of that oddness for the rest of the world to see. Sure you can tell people about it but the video work makes it a bit more understandable.
Too bad she had to cut it up to post it.

Yeah, it's very hard to explain to outsiders the strange mix of weird and bland that is Columbus. Despite its size, it feels like the smallest town I've ever lived in. Watching those clips did not make me look forward to going back in a few weeks. But, home is home, I guess.

Um, what?
So first I was all "this movie is being mean. Am I supposed to be upset/ concerned/ disgusted/ repulsed by the images and the signs?
I thought the trailer with the tchotchkes was sweet. I want to be that person.

O K a travelog with some sort of message, although I don't get it.

Then..wtf?
A photo album.

Um, what?

I am so confused.

It's a documentary video that has been cut up into segments.
We set about to do a documentary on that guy Mack and then went and interviewed all the drag queens...sorry if it's a bit disjointed and jumpy.

Was it meant to be mean?

ps.
I was just thinking about you about 15 minutes ago. I was so excited thinking it was a movie with you in it.
Are there any?

None that I know of... you can hear my voice in the interviews though.
