Probably the best narcoleptic transexual-centric musical drama-comedy movie ever. Interesting characters and oddly compelling story. The musical numbers are a little uneven, but well-executed and thematically cohesive. Some fault the songs for not being up to typical musical genre quality, but I think that fits really well with the themes of the film if you think about the character's struggles. Monica Cervera does great in such a big role.

"The film's story may be slight but Salazar's sparkling tribute to an alternative lifestyle and unconventional female beauty is liberating." - Ed Gonzalez
