“Gut-busting, ass-erupting and immoderately whorish” is how Mirha-Soleil Ross described her raw, unruly, and politically charged video work. Emerging in the ’90s as a sex worker, activist, and performance artist, Ross collaborated with t4t lover Xanthra MacKay and the Quebec Transexuals Association. Her tapes blur documentary, autobiography, and provocation, documenting trans and sex worker communities with care. TGirlsonFilm presents a rare screening of her vital video art — fierce meditations on gender, desire, animal rights, and reproductive politics.

With a pre-recorded conversation between writers, and close friends of Ross, Morgan M Page and Trish Salah.
