"Must
see! Alma Lopez's film is an unusually intimate portrayal
of butch identity. On the surface, it's all about the hair
- how to cut it, how to style it, how to stroke it - but,
really, it's about gender, race, and the daily lives of those
who push against the norms." -- Dr. Luz Calvo, Ohio State
