Trailer for Hunky Dory.
Bisexual, aging glam-rocker Sydney’s best days might be behind him. The sometimes drag performer makes ends meet however he can, even turning a trick or two to pay the rent. His life is further complicated when his schizophrenic ex-girlfriend unexpectedly drops off his eleven-year-old son Georgie, forcing Sydney to make the best of his rapidly expanding responsibilities. In a poignant and electric performance, co-writer Tomas Pais is irresistible as Sydney, capturing that manic nature of what it’s like for those desperate to remain in the spotlight at any price. Newcomer Nora Rothman also stands out as one of Sydney’s only true friends—a prostitute and Georgie’s makeshift babysitter. HUNKY DORY is a tough, sometimes humorous, and touching drama that shines a light on what it means to continue pursuing your dreams in the face of grim reality while struggling with responsibility of an unorthodox family life.
