GOODBYE HORSES: THE MANY LIVES OF Q LAZZARUS
We are kicking off this year’s QFEST with an intimate journey through the life of singer and LGBTQ+ icon, Q Lazzarus (aka Diane Luckey). Working as a NYC cab driver, Lazzarus had the good fortune to pick up film director Jonathan Demme, who – after she played her demo tape for him – chose to feature Lazzarus and her music in FOUR of his films: “Something Wild,” “Married to the Mob,” “Philadelphia,” and – most famously – “Silence of the Lambs.”
And then she vanished.
Absent for 25 years, Lazzarus returned to earning money as a driver when she just happened to pick up filmmaker Eva Aridjis Fuentes. Recognizing her immediately, Fuentes convinced Lazzarus to make this documentary and share her story in her own words, music, and lyrics. Sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes hilarious, “Goodbye Horses” stands as a moving testament to the exceptionally talented, yet vastly under-appreciated, Q Lazzarus. Not Rated. 103 minutes.
