Este pueblo necesita un muerto

Despite the incomprehension and rejection he suffers, Jesús Emilio "Chure" assumes his female personality under the name of Stefany, a transvestite who faces his homosexuality in a closed, homophobic and marginalized environment in the region of Chocó, Colombia. The documentary narrates Stefany's difficult story, in first person, in intimacy, with her faith, her pains and loneliness, in a macho environment in which she must overcome her condition of "black, poor, transvestite and ugly", and break with cultural prejudices. In the midst of praises, prayers, songs, music and alcohol, a space of encounter, socialization and recognition opens up in rites of death that for her, paradoxically, are of life.
