Synopsis
'We're the Jokers of the daughters... We're the daughters of the Jokers you couldn't burn?'
Welcome to Gotham City, where you're either a jokeman or a harlequin. Comedy is a controlled substance and Smylex addictions are rising. But one rebellious, unfunny, transgender clown called Joker is ready to fight the system—just as soon as she legally changes her name, finally creates a good comedy act, and deals with her toxic boyfriend, Jared Leto's Joker. Cut short in its 2022 festival run but kept alive by word of mouth and secret screenings, this feature debut from Emmy-nominated editor and jester visionary Vera Drew brings a bombastic mix of anti-comedy, animation and transsexual clowns, made with the help of over 100 artists and with zero authorisation from DC Comics. Fun, frenetic and fair use!
