The film is based on the true story of Hedwig (John Cameron Mitchell), a transsexual woman who was born a boy in Communist Germany. Hedwig dreamed of becoming an American rock star but after a botched sex-change operation that left her with an "angry inch" also left her uncertain of who or what she is. Most of what we see is told through songs, flashbacks and drawn images that outline the events of her life. Also with Stephen Trask, Andrea Martin, Miriam Shor and Michael Aronov. [1:35 . . .
