The freshman effort by future schlock and shock superstar John Waters, Hag in a Black Leather Jacket tells the bold tale of interracial romance during a time of heightened racial tensions. Shown only once in public, the black and white, seventeen-minute-long short features a surreal marriage between a white ballerina and a black man, conducted by a KKK priest and set on a rooftop with the Baltimore skyline as the backdrop. Featuring future Waters starlet Mary Vivien Pearce in her film debut.
