Hedwig and the Angry Inch (Criterion Collection)

Stepping back into the high-heeled shoes of his off-Broadway play's title character, director/co-writer John Cameron Mitchell stars as an East German glam rock performer and recipient of a semi-successful sex-change operation. As Hedwig and her band embark on a cross-country tour of U.S. dives and seafood restaurants, she seeks a reunion with an ex-lover who became famous performing Hedwig's songs. This campy and unique rock musical also stars Michael Pitt, Miriam Shor, Andrea Martin.
