My Prairie Home (feature)
Dir: Chelsea McMullan / 2013 / Canada / 77 min / DCP

My Prairie Home is an intimate portrait of transgender folk singer/songwriter Rae Spoon. Director Chelsea McMullan pairs deeply personal interviews with Spoon and friends with sparse, visually exquisite videos of performances by Spoon.  It’s premiere was at the Vancouver International Film Festival. “It’s beautifully shot by Maya Bankovic and Derek Howard, the original songs and score by Spoon are just brilliant, and there’s a real emotional force to this portrait of an artist growing up oh so different in an evangelical Christian environment where being different is not exactly the easiest thing to pull off.” raved Brendan Kelly of the Montreal Gazette.
