Swan Song Swan Song

Todd Stephens / USA / 2021 / 105 min / English

Starring the brilliant Udo Kier, Swan Song is a comical and bittersweet journey about rediscovering oneself and looking gorgeous while doing so.

Once one of Ohio’s leading hairdressers, Pat Pitsenbarger’s glory days seem long behind him. But when he gets word that a former client’s dying wish was for Pat to style her final hairdo, he sets out on an epic journey across Sandusky to confront the ghosts of his past—and collect the beauty supplies necessary for the job. The spree includes one last escape from his rest home in a search for reconciliation, and one last great party.

"Swan Song is a love letter to the rapidly disappearing 'gay culture' of America. As it has become more acceptable to be queer, what used to be a thriving community is rapidly melting back into society. /.../ Swan Song is dedicated to all the forgotten flaming florists and hairdressers who built the gay community and blazed the trail for the rights many of us cling to today. But, above all, for me this film is about learning that it’s never too late to live again." (Todd Stephens)

A found-footage documentary assembled exclusively out of post-socialist Romanian advertisements. Drawing from the debris of Romania’s long transition period, the film speaks about love and death, the human body and its frailty, the natural and the supernatural and of course, socialism and capitalism.
