“La Pecera”Ĭrowds were enamored by Puerto Rican filmmaker, screenwriter, producer and interdisciplinary artist Glorimar Marrero Sánchez’s first feature film directorial debut, “La Pecera.” Led by Isel Rodríguez, her character Noelia finds refuge in Puerto Rico after she becomes aware her cancer has returned. Jonathan Majors takes on the role of Killian Maddox in Elijah Bynum’s “Magazine Dreams.” Maddox is presented with the conflicts that arise between pursuing a career as a bodybuilder (despite the physical and emotional aftermath that may come with it), working on self-improving his temper and learning to assimilate to emotional human connection. Reflections on their clientele, the culture of their work and the authentic experiences they’ve endured as Black transgender women in the sex field are explored throughout the film - both from their perspective as well with insight from the men who acknowledge the struggles of fitting into society’s definition of masculinity twined in between. Smith, “Kokomo City” brings the nostalgia of black-and-white film to a real-life documentary following the uncensored lives of four transgender sex workers based in New York and Georgia.
