»You’re gay, it’s fine!«
Father Gaylord ran away to the church to avoid being gay, but he’s not doing a very good job. Meanwhile, his alien ex-lover Queen Bitch is plotting to turn the Earth into a homosexual paradise during a cosmic event. Queer super hero Captain Faggotron rushes to the rescue! Clashing ideologies culminate in an orgy of gay demons and a love that no longer has to hide. A campy fantasy film about internalized homophobia, the tyranny of the closet and the fear of a gay planet. The big bang, including an intergalactic orgy, is imminent!

Harvey Rabbit is a transgender artist living in Berlin, Germany. He has a Masters degree in dramaturgy and a Masters of Fine Arts in Experimental Theater, both from New College of California. A campaigner for LGBTQIA* and sex worker rights, his activism dates back to the mid-90s when, using spoken word as his medium, he made a scene on Northern California stages, speaking about feminism, queerness, and empowerment. He first touched European soil in 2007 as part of the CESTA “Waste” festival, a cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary festival in Tàbor, Czech Republic. In 2012 he came to Berlin with his clown show, “ShameNoShame!”.
