Madam Baterflai 2014

Directed by Carina Sama

The subtitle of Argentinian filmmaker Carina Sama’s first documentary movie is ‘diversity within diversity’ which aptly covers this close study of the lives of four transvestites and one transsexual in Bolivia today. Each of the five have made an extraordinary journey to reach the point of where they are now, and whilst most of have kept a remarkable sense of humor about their situation, for one of them, it all got too much in the end.
