Tranny Fag. A queer scream from Sao Paulo

This documentary portrays a Brazilian transsexual singer named Linn da Quebrada, a native of a very poor region of Sao Paulo who faces many prejudices, including racial ones.

Her funk music sounds like a weapon against machismo. With a really strong stage presence, she is in a constant fight against social paradigms and stereotypes.
