MOVIES

CROSS DREAMERS

Cross Dreamers is the life story of Ornella, Mabel, Mirna and Paula, men who throughout their lives practiced cross-dressing behind the backs of their families, wives and children. Their early fascination with the feminine, the years of guilt and fear have led them to have a double life. However, when they are over 50 years old, that world that they had perfectly armed begins to fall apart.

LEMEBEL

The artist Pedro Lemebel, pioneer of the Queer movement in Latin America, shook Chilean society in the 1980s under the Pinochet dictatorship with his work. This is an intimate and poetic journey through his work.
