The Mysterious Gaze of the Pink Flamingo

Early eighties, Chilean desert. Eleven-year-old Lidia grows up in a vibrant and loving queer family that has found a sanctuary in a cabaret on the edge of a rugged, dusty mining town. When a mysterious, deadly disease begins to spread – rumored to be transmitted by a single glance when a man falls in love with another – the community soon becomes the target of collective fears and fantasies. In this modern western, Lidia embarks on a quest for revenge in a world consumed by hatred and intolerance. Her family becomes her only refuge, and love perhaps the greatest danger of all.
