Insightful, scholarly, funny.......2003-12-04

This is a must-see for anyone interested in sex workers' rights. Dancers at the Lusty Lady were being exploited by management - being paid poor wages, having no changing area, and being racially discriminated against. Query tells the story of how the women not only confronted management, but also picketed in front of the peep show. She shows you the inside of the peep booths, where customers stand, and the layout of the whole place. As she tells this story, she also tells her own coming out story - how she tells her mother she's not quite straight... A truly queer film, and one of the few that is able to celebrate sex work while still highlighting the abuses in the industry.

The film contains interviews with other sex workers, partial nudity, and some frank language.

Hilarious! A "must buy".......2002-11-24

I saw this film at an film art festival and only regretted that ALL of my friends couldn't be there to see it; gay or straight, this film will keep you thinking and laughing all the way through. I'm buying one copy for a dancer I know, for Xmas. If you know a dancer -- buy this and give it to her (but watch it first). It's 2 hours that feels like the funniest 20 minutes.

Don't let the cover fool you.......2002-05-23

Despite the tawdry cover, this is a great flick done with inteligence and humour. It's sexy and has flesh but only to show the working conditions of the stripper-activists. The mother-daughter story is compelling and hilarious!
It won Best Documentary at the San Francisco Film Festival. The lines went around the block. It's the kind of film you want your friends to see.

Strippers Unite.......2001-07-02

This documentary is about a group of strippers in San Francisco who fight to start a union. Now they have the only union of exotic dancers in the U.S. The women decided unite when they realized they were being illegally filmed by customers in special one-way mirrors. Using a consumer grade Hi8 camera, first time director Query filmed the actions of the workers. She is also a performance artist and stand-up comic, who started dancing as a way to pay the bills.
