"This is about an East German singer who has a botched sex-change operation and is left with an “angry inch” of flesh between her legs. Moving to the US, she gets involved with another singer, who steals her songs and becomes famous, while Hedwig, played by the director John Cameron Mitchell, ends up playing in a chain of seafood restaurants called Bilgewater’s. It’s a beautiful film that touches on Greek mythology and the origins of love, as well as gender identity. It’s a lot of fun too – a comedy with a serious message. And the songs are great."

As December deepens and the world feels touched by a little extra magic, Slippers and Songs is the perfect tale to slip into. ❄✨

Princess Tesni is trapped in a moonlit curse that forces her to dance through the night, while Prince Brenin follows her into the Otherworld—answering riddles, uncovering secrets, and quietly falling for the woman she is beyond the enchantment.

If you followed shimmering footprints into a frost-kissed forest, where would you hope they lead?
