About the Film: Directed by Michael Mabbott and Lucah Rosenberg-Lee, this film highlights the life and career of Jackie Shane, a Black trans soul singer, who rose to fame in the local Toronto music scene in the 1960s, helping to shape that era's R & B sound. Her success reached its peak with the release of Any Other Way in 1967 and cemented her reputation as a queer icon in Canada. In the early 1970s, Shane suddenly vanished from the public scene only to reemerge in the 2010s in a series of CBC radio interviews.

A unique look into the music legend's incredible story, this film features archival materials, interviews, rotoscope animation, an original soundtrack and never-before-heard phone conversations with the musician shortly before her death in 2019 at the age of 78.
