The People’s Joker (2024)- Official Trailer

The People’s Joker" (2024) emerges as a groundbreaking DIY parody film intertwining with a queer coming-of-age narrative. Directed by filmmaker Vera Drew, the movie centers around Joker the Harlequin, an aspiring clown grappling with both comedic aspirations and her gender identity as a trans woman. Set in the iconic Gotham City, Joker navigates the comedy scene, aiming for success by joining the cast of UCB Live, a government-approved late-night sketch show in a society where humor is banned. Drawing inspiration from DC Comics and Drew’s personal experiences, the film was brought to life through crowdfunding, uniting over 200 predominantly queer artists, musicians, and animators.
