CGiii Comment

Awarded Best Documentary Feature at Portland Film Festival, and honored the New York Hi Lights Award at Harlem International Film Festival. Tamara W. is an honest, stripped-down look into the world of voguing, escort business, ecstasy addiction, sexual abuse, and being a transgender girl. The documentary film is a compassionate portrait of Tamara Williams, a 23-year-old Bronx girl with fire in her heart, and too much life experience on her shoulders. Tamara tells her story openly and candidly. The disturbing experiences of her life have not been able to dispirit her. British style icon i-D Magazine has listed Tamara among its “30 under 30” New Yorkers shaking up the City. Visually, the film presents a bare and lingering look at the locations of Tamara's life and everyday life in the Bronx, along the #4 subway line of New York City’s transit system. The film pays homage to the beauty of the borough and its residents.
