A poignant and heartfelt story of resilience, community, and activism during a few
years in the life of Kenya Cuevas, a sex worker and trans rights activist in Mexico
City. We meet Kenya after she witnesses the death of her friend Paola at the hands
of a client.
Closely following Kenya through these intimate moments, she welcomes us into her inner
world. She deals with the death of her friend and the threat of violence against trans
women in Mexico City, while fighting for a better world for herself and her sisters.
A beautifully raw tribute to the life of Paola and Kenya’s continuing work advocating
for trans rights and for her community.
