12 years old Sav Rodgers used to watch \u201cChasing Amy\u201d<\/em> repeatedly, and the film had changed his life forever. He developed an identification, maybe even an obsession, with the 1997\u2019s hit which formed his queer identity. When Sav grows older he decides to produce and direct a movie that explores the role of \u201cChasing Amy\u201d<\/em> in the queer culture. He even manages to get the cooperation and support of Kevin Smith, the director of \u201cChasing Amy\u201d<\/em> and one of the most influential independent filmmakers of the 90\u2019s. But as the production continues, Rodgers begins to realise the legacy of the original film is different than what he imagined and he discovers new things about himself, his relationship with his girlfriend and his gender identity.
\n\u201cChasing Chasing Amy\u201d<\/em> is a cinematic celebration of queer culture and identity. A fresh new look on a complex bi classic, how the idea to make \u201cChasing Amy\u201d<\/em> formed, what went on backstage, what happened to the actors of the film after the major success and how all of that affected filmmaker Sav Rodgers.
\nKevin Smith, the director and writer of the original film, gives Rodgers a free hand and talks openly even on the less glamorous moments of the process. Other notable appearances in the film include Joey Lauren Adams who played Amy, screenwriter and actress Guinevere Turner (well known from the classic lesbian film \u201cGo Fish\u201d<\/em>) who was personally involved in the film and director Andrew Ahn (\u201cFire Island\u201d<\/em>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
