    • Synopsis
    • At a homeless drop-in centre in New York City, a documentary crew finds Bikini Moon Davis, looking for help and a place to stay. With wide, lively eyes and a broad smile, Bikini is provocative, bold, and dynamic – and also clearly in a troubled mental state. Claiming she drove a forklift in the Iraq war and was trained as a carpenter – “just like Jesus, with tits” – she’s been on and off the streets, and hopes to stabilize her life and get back her young daughter from a foster home.

      Presented as a documentary that unravels, reveals, and reimagines itself alongside its unpredictable subject, BIKINI MOON’s film-within-a-film structure unpacks and examines the way we look at the world through media that demands to be seen as reality while asking the uncomfortable questions about the often deplorable relationship between media and its subjects.

      BIKINI MOON is most effective because it challenges viewers on an intellectual level while still maintaining a visceral emotional grip.
