Imagine a cross section between the original Queer As Folk, a CBBC-induced fever dream, and an especially good episode of Doctor Who, and you're close to our film for night two of Trading Faces.
Virtual Sexuality (1999) is an accidentally(?) transsexual caper about Justine (Laura Frasier of short-lived Scottish L Word riff Lip Service), a seventeen year old who accidentally becomes her own ideal guy through a miraculous technological mishap involving an immersive character creation menu at a VR convention.
For Justine, coming to terms with living as a teenage boy is just the start of her problems in this wild, forgotten slice of Brit Sci-Fi/Romcom madness about the bizarre adventure that is having a body, figuring out who you are, and deciding what you want.
Find us downstairs at Dalston Superstore and help decide if we have a piece of transmasc canon on our hands.
