Directed and written by Aurora Jamelo and Sophia William, “Incendiárias” compiles scenes of trans women and transvestites performing in public spaces in Pernambuco. The images sometimes tune in to these women's dreams and desires, their roots and truths; sometimes they denounce fears, frustrations and aggressions experienced daily - a provocation and, at the same time, a manifesto for the existence of this population.

Recounting real events inspired by the revolutionary theater group that transformed the artistic scene in the city of Olinda in the 1970s, Once Upon a Time Diversiones tells the story of newcomer Sharlene Esse’s first night—and future first transgender leading lady of Pernambuco theater—at the most charismatic performance house in a not-so-distant kingdom.
