DoNutella Knowles

‘The Making of DoNutella Knowles’ documents the time, effort, and materials that go into creating a Drag Queen. As Eve 6000, a well-known Toronto Drag Queen and contestant of Canada’s Drag Race, ‘beats’ Samuel Davilmar’s face, we see the slow and creative transition from Samuel, to his Drag persona ‘DoNutella Knowles’. With each closeup shot the amount of details put into this craft is seen, and as each additional layer of makeup is applied we see DoNutella Knowles become more and more fierce. In the words of Mother RuPaul ‘DoNutella Knowles, shantay you stay”.
