Made by Memphis exploitation auteur JMM, BROAD DAYLIGHT features modern-day burlesque stars in a series of stag loops, all to a garage band soundtrack.
   

Kitten de Ville shows those photographers at the American Cinematheque and the historic Egyptian theater.

Billed as the "film event for those who crave soemthing a little more visceral", the films toured together in Memphis, New Orleans, Park City, Austin and Los Angeles.

The culmination of the screenings involved live shows featuring the stars of both movies: Kitten de Ville, Bobby Pinz, Dirty Martini, the Poubelles, Anna Bells, Candy Whiplash (aka Victoria Renard, co-director of BROAD DAYLIGHT), Princess Farhana, Ursulina and Penny Starr Jr. (dir. of THE VELVET HAMMER BURLESQUE).
