An unmissable tribute to the Afro-Cuban bad girl of Latin music. Award winning director Ela Troyano crafts a stunning portrayal of the macho bombshell Lupe Yoli, also known as La Lupe, whose sexually explosive, trance-like performance style and tragic life made her a worldwide gay icon.

The film will be introduced by Sara Wajid, who will also give an introductory talk about the surprising comeback the film has sparked for La Lupe.

The screening is free. To book, call 020 7320 2222 or email moreinfo@thewomenslibrary.ac.uk
