Chelly Wilson是一位庆祝圣诞节的犹太奶奶,一位嫁给男人的女同性恋,也是20世纪70年代纽约市色情剧院的骄傲老板。通过录音,Chelly讲述了她战前逃离希腊的经历,直到她不太可能成为母亲,并在“The Deuce”(又名纽约臭名昭著的第42街)上作为一名精明的女商人致富。迷人的二战和纽约市档案录像展示了这个关于一个家庭及其女家长的有趣故事,一个真正独特的角色,厚颜无耻。
Chelly Wilson was a Christmas-celebrating Jewish grandma, a lesbian who married men, and a proud owner of porn theaters in 1970s NYC. Through audio recordings, Chelly recounts her pre-war escape from Greece up through her unlikely motherhood and rise to wealth as a shrewd businesswoman on “The Deuce,” aka New York’s infamous 42nd Street. Fascinating WWII and NYC archival footage illustrate this entertaining story of a family and its matriarch, a truly unique character with chutzpah in spades.
