In a fusion of manifesto and performance, the film traverses three continents following a collective of trans women, sex workers, and racially marginalized gender-dissident voices who confront colonial and patriarchal systems. It weaves together radical acts of resistance, performances, and interviews with archival footage from brothels in the Klondike (1890), in Guaicurus-BH (1990), and at an Artistic Residency Convent in Spain (2024).
