(El Calentito)
Chus Gutiérrez / SPA, 2004
Spanish version / Czech subtitles, 90 min
High-spirited comedy about the adventures of a naïve and virgin girl who flees to a decadent nightclub to escape her tyrannical mother. Madrid’s club El Calentito, owned by a sassy transsexual, was a safe haven for all forms of sexuality in the oppressive climate of the Franco regime. Anything goes there, the vibe is both pansexual and punk rock. Sara finally finds a place where she can be her true self. Leaders of the local band Las Sioux, a lesbian singer Joan Jett lookalike Carmen and free-spirited Leo, invite Sara to join the band. But on the night of their performance something astonishing happens, the remaining members of the fascist regime stage a daring coup d'état. Will El Calentito survive the ensuing chaos? What will become of Las Sioux?
