Joselyn, a Mexican transgender immigrant woman, crosses the Mexico/U.S. border to
flee increasingly dangerous conditions in her hometown. She attempts to adjust to
her new home in Queens, New York, but finds similar oppressive conditions in the U.S.
After the murder of her best friend she falls into deep depression. Joselyn finds
a community of transgender women and together they fight to lift themselves out of
poverty by attempting to open the first trans owned cooperative salon in the United
States.
