The Green Mountain Film Festival Presents: Any Other Way -The Jackie Shane Story

Jackie Shane was a star of the 1960s R&B soul scene, poised for major success, before she mysteriously disappeared from the stage. Through rotoscope animated reenactments and phone interviews with Jackie, Any Other Way: The Jackie Shane Story traces this Black transgender icon’s childhood, rise in the music scene, and unwavering commitment to being herself and speaking truth to power. An equal parts heartbreaking and inspiring story of an incredibly talented woman who deserved every spotlight but refused to compromise her values, Any Other Way is a tribute to the unsung trans elders who came before us and a guide to standing up for your authentic self.
