Director Louise Barrett says, “According to official data Somerset has the largest number of transsexual individuals living in the South West. This is a real area of diversity and one that artists, schools and venues are keen to explore and understand. Luna is not just about gender, it is about acceptance, tolerance and understanding the wonderfully diverse world we now inhabit.”
John Holman shot this video at a Take Art show at Sexey's School in Bruton, Somerset.
The film features Louise Barrett and her "Pretty Good Girl" Dance Theatre Company and the male dancer is Andy Burnett. As Louise mentions, this piece is based on the book, Luna, by Julie Anne Peters.
Please check out further films made by John Holman from Transition Vision, who documented many of the artists and shows on last season's rural touring programme.
