Boots invites you into a boudoir full of guilty pleasures — starring singer Christine Duncan and her precious footwear. Accompanied by percussionist Jean Martin, Christine presents a cast of more than thirty pairs of boots, procured over the last decade from secondhand stores, online auctions and retail outlets. She adds to her obsessive collection weekly. When will it stop?
