A
loving portrait of Jennifer Miller, a lesbian performer who
lives her life with a full beard. Miller works as a performance
artist, circus director, clown and as the "bearded lady" in
one of the only remaining sideshows in America. In public
she is often mistaken for a man, an experience she handles
with the wit and intelligence that characterize her stage
performances. JUGGLING GENDER explores the fluidity of gender
and raises important questions about the construction of
sexual and gender identity.
1992, 27 minutes, Color,Video
Produced and Directed by Tami Gold
Spanish subtitled version available. |

"JUGGLING
GENDER is Tami Gold's remarkable video about Jennifer Miller,
a performance artist who just happens to have a beard. Rotating
masculinity and femininity the way some folk change shoes,
Miller confronts gender every time she hits the streets."

Dargis, THE VILLAGE VOICE |

"With simplicity and remarkable feeling, JUGGLING GENDER delivers a profound exploration of what it means to be a person."

"A
warm, smart and effective video that is fun to watch at the
same time that it provokes thought."
Sarah Schulman, novelist and playwright |

"* * * For all those interested in the construction of sexual and gender identity this video is a must."
