About this Event
International Premiere at The Five Lamps Arts Festival
DRAGS, A SUPER FILM offers a powerful and intimate look into the lives of four Brazilian drag artists: Tchaka, Hellena Borgys, Márcia Pantera and Vera Ronzella.
Filmed between 2022 and 2023, this documentary takes audiences behind the scenes of their daily lives, creative worlds, and artistic practices. Through their stories, the film celebrates drag as a vibrant art form full of joy, colour and expression, while also exploring the challenges of prejudice and the strength required to live authentically.
Each performer brings a unique voice:
- Tchaka, the “Queen of Parties,” a long-standing presence at São Paulo Pride
- Hellena Borgys, inspired by family and Brazilian television culture
- Márcia Pantera, a pioneer of the iconic bate cabelo dance style
- Vera Ronzella, a sharp-witted, unapologetic performer
Together, their stories form a moving portrait of resilience, identity, and artistic freedom.
A celebration of drag, creativity, and the power of self-expression.
