Description

Invited to perform their unique style of cabaret at a remote Australian casino, two drag queens and transwoman Bernadette (the late Terence Stamp in an iconic role) hit the road to journey across the desert in a rickety lavender bus named Priscilla. Honor Stamp's legacy with this quintessential member of the queer cinematic canon, a testament to family, community, and love.

The Pitch

The core of Stephen Elliott’s movie about three drag queens on a no-hope road trip from Sydney to Alice Springs is a warm-hearted tale about yearning for family.
