梅爾十歲生日那天,母親哼著流行金曲「瑪麗露」、踏著輕快舞步離家出走,從此,他的生命缺了一角。高中時期,與好姊妹舒麗一起愛上了帥氣籃球隊長加比,但加比與舒麗火速陷入熱戀,惹得梅爾妒意橫生,還慘遭加比當眾羞辱。
梅爾逃離一切來到臺拉維夫,單憑一張照片千里尋母,遍尋不著卻機緣巧合進入變裝酒吧工作,他化身為瑪麗露,狂野妖艷踏上母親朝思暮想的舞台,成為臺拉維夫第一紅牌變裝皇后。此時,感情觸礁的舒麗與加比也來湊一腳,怎知梅爾與加比竟在此時天雷勾動地火,三人同床春心蕩漾,直男是否可以掰彎?母親到底身在何方?
繼《我的軍中情人》、《泡泡公寓四人行》後,伊藤福克斯再度以本片橫掃國際同志影展,跳脫過往藉由國仇家恨探討性別議題,而改以花枝招展的歌舞糖衣,包裝這個關於真愛、夢想與尋找自我的動人小品。青春洋溢超越《歡樂合唱團》,溫馨感人更勝《媽媽咪啊!》,妖光四射直逼《沙漠妖姬》,絕對讓你的心情如洗三溫暖,暢快無比。
Acclaimed Israeli director Eytan Fox (The Bubble, Yossi & Jagger) brings to life this modern fable with a catchy musical message. Miriam has a dream: being a famous singer, that’s why she abandoned her son Meir. Meir never stops searching for his mother—eventually moved from his small hometown to Tel Aviv, and becomes THE famous drag queen Mary Lou. As the melody plays on, Meir discovers his needs finding himself within even more than finding his mother.
