More Info

"Der Soundtrack zum intimen, rührenden Porträt über Leben und Kunst des bahnbrechenden Performance Künstlers und Musikpionieres Genesis Breyer P-Orridge (THROBBING GRISTLE, PSYCHIC TV) und seiner besseren Hälfte und Kollaborateurin Lady Jaye, das sich um die gewagten sexuellen Transformationen, denen sich das Paar im Rahmen ihres "Pandrogyne"-Projektes unterwarf, dreht. Mit dabei ist natürlich Musik von PSYCHIC TV, THEE MAJESTY und anderen Kollaborationen von P-Orridge. Im Jahr 2000 begann Genesis eine Reihe von Operationen mit dem Ziel, seiner Liebe Lady Jaye (alias Jacqueline Breyer) ähnlicher zu werden, die seit fast 15 Jahren bessere Hälfte und künstlerische Partnerin ist. Es war der ultimative Akt der Hingabe und die subversivste Performance, die Genesis jemals zeigte: er wurde in einem triumphalen Akt der künstlerischen Selbstverwirklichung zu einer Sie. Genesis nannte das Projekt "Creating The Pandrogyne". www.balladofgenesisandladyjaye.com

"The soundtrack to the intimate, affecting portrait of the life and work of ground-breaking performance artist and music pioneer Genesis Breyer P-Orridge (Throbbing Gristle, Psychic TV) and his other half and collaborator, Lady Jaye, centered around the daring sexual transformations the pair underwent for their “Pandrogyne” project. Featuring music by Psychic TV, Thee Majesty and various collaborators (Bryin Dall, Derek Rush, Tony Conrad). This is a love story, and a portrait of two lives that illustrate the transformative powers of both love and art. In warm and intimate images captured handheld, Marie Losier crafts a labyrinthine mise-en-scene of interviews, home movies, and performance footage. The Ballad of Genesis and Lady Jaye documents a truly new brand of Romantic consciousness, one in defiance of the daily dehumanization of the body by the pervasive presence of advertising and pornography, conveying beauty, dignity and devotion from a perspective never before seen on film."
