'Nina Queer, known nationwide as an entertainer, show star, DJ, singer, and disco star, is certainly one of the greatest drag queens of our time. But what happens when the lights go out, the make-up is washed off and the wig is hung on the stand? Who is the person behind the dazzling artificial figure and how he or she has managed to become a brand in the Berlin party scene?
It is not enough to be a handsome boy who puts on women's clothes and tells jokes. This requires intelligence, razor-sharp observation, hard work in initially anything but glamorous jobs as well as ambition and creativity. Even though she shines today as a star in the night sky of the capital scene, there were setbacks, disappointments, money worries, and fortunately a lot of sex on the way to fame.
Nina Queer reports on this authentically and sincerely in a style that does not let boredom arise for a second. One gets apprehensive, suffers, curses, and rejoices with her. Her narrative style is light without being superficial and combines the right amount of humor and seriousness. With witty anecdotes, Nina Queer self-ironically and charmingly masters the tightrope walk between unbearable and irresistible. Nina Queer, she fascinates and polarizes but you can't overlook her.'
