Synopsis

In 1979, filmmaker Trent Harris meets a hopeful young man from Beaver, Utah, in a Salt Lake City parking lot. Invited to film the town's talent show, Harris documents the young man's performance in drag as Olivia Newton John – a glimpse into an outsider's world. This documentary inspired Harris to create a dramatic piece called "Beaver Kid 2" in 1981, using a $100 budget and a home video camera, with a young Sean Penn as the titular character. Later, Harris rewrote the script, casting Crispin Glover as the lead in the final segment, "The Orkly Kid," which was funded by the American Film Institute. The three parts together explore the inner life of this unique character.
