Magic Mike meets The Full Monty in this experimental documentary featuring six average joes as they reinvent the limited male revue staples such as Chippendales and Thunder from Down Under. The result is the Buckaroosa theatrical cowboy western variety show. Beneath the cowboy hats and bedazzled thongs, the documentary explores themes of masculinity and sexuality through the vulnerabilities of each Buckaroo.

I feel like theres just so many ways to come at this movie, because its fun. You have people who are interested in gender, LGBTQ, or dance/performance. But I think, ultimately, people just have a really good time watching it, and that always is what people come back to with it. Its something that makes you feel good. Thats really needed for a lot of people when theyre going to watch something. They want to walk away Theres a doc, and I walk away feeling happy about life, and its amazing.
