The Ballad of Genesis and Lady Jaye

The Ballad of Genesis and Lady Jaye – Marie Losier

The Ballad of Genesis and Lady Jaye documents the modern love story between ground-breaking performance artist and music pioneer Genesis Breyer P-Orridge (Throbbing Gristle, Psychic TV) and his other half and collaborator, Lady Jaye, centered around the daring sexual transformations the pair underwent for their “Pandrogyne” project, the couple's attempt to dissolve the physical boundaries between them and become the same person. Mixing interviews, home movies, and performance footage, Losier brings us nearer to the artists than ever in a playful and moving revelation of a new romantic consciousness. (2011, US, 72 min)
