Mexico, October 2011. A mysterious dream gives birth to Cuco, a transgender latex pirate activist. A manifesto is written, and a first appearance occurs in a French queer club. But Cuco is not just a night owl. In confronting transphobia and the current state of emergency, they join forces with other lives left behind. This essayistic film follows their quest to create more recognition for the queer community. The collective struggle takes the form of an unrestrained, shamanic black-and-white dance that crosses countries and continents.
