About
Tracing the life and work of black, transgender electronic music trailblazer, Glenn Copeland, Keyboard Fantasies is a resoundingly hopeful portrait of this queer elder, and a reflection on the power of music to soothe, and to make sense of the world. Copeland’s life has been lived ahead of his time, and has foreshadowed many recent shifts in understandings of gender, race, and of music composition. Copeland is a radiant force, who has overcome prejudice with an infectious sense of joy and a deep sense of belonging in the world. This uplifting film follows the septuagenarian as he shares his music on tour for the first time.
