This documentary chronicles the life of Sophia Lamar, a New York icon whose story spans continents, movements, and eras of reinvention. From her childhood in revolutionary Cuba to her gender transition in 1980s San Francisco, Sophia’s journey reflects both personal courage and cultural transformation. She rose to international prominence as a Paris runway model for designers like Mugler and as a muse for David LaChapelle, before plunging into the hedonistic world of 1990s New York club culture, where her path intersected with the infamous Michael Alig scandal. Today, Sophia stands as a celebrated character actress, her life a vivid testament to survival, artistry, and the power of self-creation.
