Iquitos, the largest city in the rainforest of Peru, is only accessible by boat or plane. The documentary follows the preparations for the Miss Amazonia pageant, the most important event for the LGBT community in the region. Sensitive portraits of the young contestants of the beauty pageant show dreams, strength, and vulnerability of the young people, and the search for the core of their own sexuality. With an introduction in English by Kaue Felipe Nogarotto Crima Bellini, social scientist from Uni Basel.
