You’re Not My Target Audience. is a documentary film, created by queer women and intended for queer women. Following three professional performers as they navigate their careers as queer women artists in Toronto, the documentary uses interviews, spoken word, and performance pieces to address issues of access, invisibility, and oppression. Theatre creator Moynan King, hip-hop artist MC Jazz, and performance artist Jess Dobkin discuss their artistic works and the mandates and uses of various performance spaces in Toronto. By no means are the women of the film victims. This is not a story of women defeated. You’re Not My Target Audience. demonstrates how women are still creating, producing, and supporting one another as they determine their own destinies despite the challenges they face. With a cast of all queer women, the film negotiates the obstacles and celebrates the achievements of queer women performers in Toronto.
