"Queendom" is a 2023 documentary film directed and co-written by Agniia Galdanova. It tells the story of Russian performance artist Jenna Marvin.
A native of Magadan who grew up in her grandparents' house, Jenna went by the name Gennady Chebotarev and endured many trials before establishing herself as a non-binary person and a radical artist.
When Russia launched a large-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Jenna staged a kind of protest show in the streets of Moscow in an extravagant costume. With great difficulty, she managed to escape repression by escaping Russia. She settled in Paris, where she is trying to build a career as a drag queen.
The film by director Agniia Galdanova was shown at many international film festivals and received enthusiastic reviews from the press and audiences.
On Friday, we invite you to the premiere of the film in Auditoria and a discussion with the director!
