when the weirdos come out

‘When The Weirdos Come Out’ is a nightlife documentary of underground culture in Columbus, GA. I went to local concerts and performances to capture the dynamic where people gather and have a good time. When I came to these concerts and drag shows, my first impression was that the people I met were edgy, wild, and fun. About the title, the word ‘weirdo’ is usually used to describe someone for doing something considered unacceptably bizarre or odd. However, I want to use the word ‘weirdo’ as an empowering word to describe someone bold in expressing themselves, passionate, and rebellious against prejudice. At its heart, ‘When The Weirdos Come Out’ is a celebration of people who look outside of the norm to express themselves and have fun.
