CGiii Comment

Friends and foes recount their stories of murdered Cris Negão - a no-nonsense transvestite brothel keeper.

Only interesting to those who knew Cris Negão...it's not exactly an exercise in social history...more like a prime example of hearsay.

Cristiane Jordan, or Cris Negão, as she was called, was a transvestite who worked as a bawd in downtown of São Paulo known by her violent methods to control the other transvestites. Hated and feared by a legion, she also had her fans until she was tragically murdered with two shots in the head. The documentary is a dive into the transvestite universe through the stories of this legendary character of São Paulo's underworld.
