What Did You Drag Me Into?
Can a drag queen hit the number one spot on the iTunes Christian Music chart? It turns out the answer is yes.
Flamy Grant is a drag queen and singer/songwriter releasing her second album in the Contemporary Christian Music category. Needless to say, a Christian-music-singing drag queen raises quite a few eyebrows and attracts a good amount of backlash from the religious right. But through her music, performances, and activism, she is carving a space for queer people in Christian music and in the church.
This documentary tells Flamy’s story as a queer Christian dealing with religious trauma and finding a creative, life-affirming space as a drag queen. From the first time she performs in drag to attending the Dove Awards — the Christian music equivalent of the Grammys — in drag and the release of her second album, Flamy Grant experiences love and support as well as hateful comments and protesters.
But she does not give up or give in. Flamy continues to write and record music, perform, and takes on the role of activist to protect LGBTQ+ rights in the southern United States.
