Divina Raio-Laser

Diamante is a gay boxer who stands out for his body control and fast leg movements. At night, he performs as a drag queen at a nightclub. His judgmental coach leaves him out of a boxing competition, but Diamante wants to be a champion.

Six drag performers give an account of their artistic, personal and social experiences in Sao Paulo. Focusing on the creative processes that culminate in the performances, the artists share experiences from the cathartic and particular world of drag art: the creation and maintenance of a lifelong character. After investigating the specificities of this art, the documentary connects them to the social performance that all of us carry out daily.
