A tender portrait of Tabaco y Ron, a small brothel in a Bogotá neighbourhood that’s home to many of the city’s trans sex workers.
Since 2001, the 20-block quadrant of Santa Fe, known as the ‘tolerance zone’, has been designated for legal sex. Many of its inhabitants are from the trans community and continue to face violence and discrimination in a region that accounts for three quarters of the world’s trans-related murders. Like the area it is located in, the family-run brothel Tabaco y Ron offers refuge to trans sex workers. Both young and old, the workers open up to filmmaker Carmen Oquendo-Villar, who weaves their stories into a fascinating and often moving tapestry of life. All the Flowers also looks at trans activist Diana Navarro’s work with the community, former Mayor Antanas Mockus’ radical policies, and highlights the continuing importance of Tabaco y Ron as both a refuge and home.
