The Power of Vulnerability in 'Chasing Amy': Uncovering Painful Truths.
Sav Rodgers' documentary feature debut, Chasing Chasing Amy, examines the cultural and personal impact of the 1997 Kevin Smith-directed Chasing Amy. The film explores themes of coming of age, fandom culture, the #MeToo movement, and the realization that Hollywood is not inherently the romantic place it’s sold as onscreen. The documentary features interviews with director Smith, star Joey Lauren Adams, and other notable artists and experts in queer cinema. The film also includes Rodgers' own personal journey as a trans filmmaker.
