SYNOPSIS
Across 17 years, award-winning documentarian Marie Losier (Cassandro, the Exotico!) has captured the dynamic and provocative essence of Merrill Nisker aka Peaches, the trailblazing feminist queer icon. This intimate portrait — an Official Selection at the Venice Film Festival, where it was nominated for a Queer Lion — offers a deep dive into the life of an inspiring, taboo-shattering artist. Discover Peaches’ electrifying concerts, her close bond with her sister and how her boundless energy, fearless exploration on and off stage has transformed every phase of her life into a captivating work of art.
