ABOUT THE FILM

Her hilarious performances are interspersed with a variety of personal moments along the tour route, including rare interviews, backstage banter with her 19-year partner Urvashi Vaid, reading from her new book What the L?, and cameo appearances from Lily Tomlin, Melissa Etheridge, Billie Jean King, Marga Gomez, Vickie Shaw and other celebrities.
