The Screen Guide

This documentary is about the unlikely journey of a suburban Aussie boy - Tobin Saunders - who after being inspired by his mother's 1970's patio parties in Sydney's Northern Beaches, gave birth to drag identity and political activist, Vanessa Wagner. We'll see Vanessa's involvement with Australia's Gay & Lesbian Mardi-Gras, gain insight into her human rights advocacy and learn of the devastating news that brought Tobin & Vanessa full circle and back to the solace he knew as a boy.
