Review of Fagbug (2009) by Roxanne R — 25 Dec 2011
Talk about activism on wheels! This is a prime example of how to turn a negative into a positive by bringing awareness to the public about homophobia and hatred against the GLBT community. Erin Davies was a graduate student at a New York college when one day she found her VW Beetle spray painted with the words fag and UR gay on both sides of her beloved car.
In response, she put her studies on hold and embarked upon a video-documented, 55,000 mile journey through 41 U.S. states, during which she interviewed hundreds of people and spoke out against hate crimes.
Davies received sponsorship from Volkswagen Group of America and the Sundance Film Festival to use for gas money, car expenses, and the film which in my personal opinion was very good! It brought fond memories of the road trip I made across 11 states and 21 cities.
