Drifter is set to close out the BFI Flare film festival on March 23, with further release plans TBA.

Femme

Femme is a sleek noir thriller dressed up in heels and a lace front, telling the gripping story of Jules who quits drag after a violent assault. Later, when Jules encounters his attacker in the bathhouse, he realizes three things: The guy’s deeply closeted, he doesn’t recognize Jules out of drag, and it’s time to plot some revenge.
