Synopsis

In AVANT-DRAG!, ten drag artists take to the streets of Athens to boldly defy societal norms. Through their meticulously crafted personas—ranging from riotous housewives to iconic figures of Albanian turbo-folk—they channel the expressive force of drag to advocate for social justice, confronting the weight of conservatism, patriarchy, and nationalism. Blending poetry with punk, the film beckons viewers to reckon with the past and imagine a redefined future.
