- Summary:
- Bara no sōretsu = Funeral parade of roses is a headlong dive into the dazzling, unseen Tokyo night-world of drag queen bars and fabulous divas, fueled by booze, drugs, fuzz guitars, performance art and black mascara. Hot young thing Eddie, hostess at Bar Genet, ignites a violent love-triangle with reigning drag queen Leda for the attentions of club owner Gonda.
