Synopsis
Angel, 36 year old Ecuadorian transvestite who prostitutes himself in Paris, after living five years in France, finally obtained his residence permit. For the Christmas holidays, he can go back home in Ecuador to see his family.
The film presents this two months trip: a deep immersion in a complex universe, hardly accessible.
Showing us the dynamic of immigrants sending money to their family, ANGEL is a movie about the pressure of homophobia in Latin America. Taking place in a poor neighborhood of Guayaquil, this documentary tells us the story of a disturbing but touching character.
