VENUS ENVY: THE HOUSE OF VENUS STORY
MICHAEL VENUS | CANADA | 2023 | 79 MIN | ENGLISH

Venus Envy: The House of Venus Story
A celebration of an underground movement of love, this film tells the unique story of the multi-dimensional Canadian artist collective known as “The House of Venus”. From their humble beginnings throwing DIY theme parties and fashion shows, to their journey of creating world-renowned queer culture and community, we follow the members as they prepare for the 25th instalment of their performance and wearable art festival “Wiggle”.

Wiggle is an annual Wearable Art & Performance Festival celebrating the avant-garde, drag & of course the Wig!

Performers to be released soon!

This will be a reunion of great proportions with the return of the Venus Family for a magical moment in time!
