GINGER COYOTE TALKS VKTMS & VKTMS PERFORM 1981 A Karl Hinz Film

Shortly after I met Ginger Coyote back in early 1981 I filmed this interview with her while she typed an article about the band VKTMS for Punk Globe. She discussed her relationship with Nyna Crawford and the other VKTMS and talked about how Punk Globe was formed and produced. Around the same time, I was fortunate enough to have been able to film VKTMS at the Keystone Berkeley. The result of combining both is the film you are about to see.
This film and all of my others have been masterfully transferred and restored by Dino Everett at the USC HMH Foundation Moving Image Archive as part of their Punk Media Research Collection. More to come...Karl Davis Hinz

As a young queer punk kid still in the closet, I was fascinated with the friendship between Nina and Ginger. Maybe in my eyes it was like the first straight/queer alliance that I ever witnessed. I would see them often together...two cool punk girl's that were friends. Ginger was my first trans friend/aquaintance...She would often get uncomfortably friendly with me when she was tipsy. haha..I saw the VKTMS more times than I can count. They were one of my faves back then in the late 70's/early 80's. Loved Nyna's voice
