## Description

Role Models is a wild and witty self-portrait of John Waters, America's 'Pope of Trash', told through intimate profiles of his favourite personalities - some famous, some unknown, some criminal, some surprisingly middle of the road.

A paean to the power of subversive inspiration that delights, amuses and happily horrifies in equal measure...
