This Is Not Kansas
We volunteered our asses off Saturday in Bayou Vista, Texas and shot what we saw. Keep an eye out for more posts, photos, video, and details from the weekend's trip to BV and Galveston Island, over the next few days. (Or, if you are seeing this on Chronic or Gay Place, click over to our In Case of Emergency blog for much more.)
We had no intention of making a film, but then we met Dee Dee and couldn't have stopped if we tried. We hope we did our subjects justice. This is dedicated to them.

This Is Not Kansas is a film by Kate X Messer and Dacia Saenz. The principal characters in this baby doc are Dee Dee, Pookie, their neighbors, some onlookers, the filmmakers, the town of Bayou Vista, TX, and the remnants of Hurricane Ike. The music is Kaki King's "Doing the Wrong Thing" (permission pending).
