Juan Andretta captures the essence of Fernanda Ocaña, a drag artist whose life journey from Seville to the heart of the city is both touching and inspiring. The pacing feels organic; it flows with the rhythm of her performances and the lively atmosphere of Bar Ocaña. There's something about the way the documentary intertwines personal storytelling with themes of acceptance and self-expression that makes it stand out. The practical effects are minimal, focusing instead on the authenticity of Fernanda's experiences and her relationships. It’s a poignant look at the art of drag and the life of an artist who refuses to fade away.
