The Ballad of Genesis and Lady Jaye (2011), 78 mins.
An intimate, affecting portrait of the life and work of groundbreaking performance artist and music pioneer Genesis Breyer P-Orridge (Throbbing Gristle, Psychic TV) and h/er other half and collaborator, Lady Jaye, centered around the daring sexual transformations the pair underwent for their “Pandrogyne” project. Genesis Breyer P-Orridge has been a key figure of the underground music scene for over 30 years. A cult artist in pre-punk and post-punk groups Throbbing Gristle (1975 to 1981) and Psychic TV (1981 to present), s/he is considered to be the “father” of industrial music and a pioneer of acid house and techno. Not content with breaking new ground in music, Genesis has also used h/er position at the limits of society to challenge the very fundamentals of biology.
