OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO: Pamela Anderson was a Prophet

“With Pamela Anderson Was a Prophet, we set out to create a video that flips old Western iconography on its head by casting an entirely queer, mostly trans group of performers to tell a story where a Drag Queen is the great equalizer. It’s good old fashion camp, but also a giant act of rebellion in these times where performing in drag is more and more threatened by the Texas legislation.“ - Director Emily Basma *** Emily Basma is an Austin-based photographer and filmmaker who explores the iconography, folklore, and myths of antiquity as well as the American South. She lovingly creates feminine and ethereal filmscapes reminiscent of pleasant dreams. Her work has been featured by Peach Fuzz Magazine, The Alamo Drafthouse, Paramount, and SXSW.
