LA QueenCiañera

Pedro Peira
España
 - 2021
2nd film

Bamby Salcedo is turning 50 years old. For most people, a 50th birthday is a time of reflection, but for Bamby, it is a moment to celebrate. She is a true survivor: a transgender, HIV-positive, undocumented immigrant, victim of multiple sexual assaults, in recovery from narcotics addiction. Living through years as a sex worker and spending much of her time on the streets, she has emerged as one of the most recognizable trans activists in Southern California.

Pedro Peira

With a PHD in Audiovisual Communication from the Complutense University and a master’s degree in Documentary Filmmaking from the New York Film Academy, from 2000 to 2009 he served as Marketing Manager and Sales Director at BocaBoca Producciones.
