“A fascinating piece of cinema verite”

“A story of humanity, fragility, consciences, feelings, discoveries.” – MARIE CLAIRE
A proud transgender sex worker since the age of eleven, Luana Muniz, now fifty-nine, shapes a new reality in her “hostel” by housing a new generation of transgender sex workers in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Directed by Theodore Collatos and Carolina Monnerat, Queen of Lapa explores the day-to-day lives, rivalries, and quests for love of sex workers, as Muniz’s guides them in a city full of hostility towards its LGBTQ community.
