50 years of THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW! This anniversary documentary traces the path of Richard O’Brien’s musical from London in the early 1970s, through its initial cinema flop, and on to 50 years of absolute cult status with a worldwide fan base. In personal interviews, the cast, crew and fans of the film and the numerous theatre productions recount crazy, exciting and touching stories relating to the cultural phenomenon and the circumstances of its production. The importance of theatre plays and films for the LGBTQIA+ movement is thereby emphasised. “Don’t dream it, be it” – an appeal for acceptance and self-realisation. Time to live your dreams for the next 50 years!
