    ★★★★½

    bursting in pastel colors, latin jazz and oiled up sun browned skin, this made me long for the unremebered queer Miami home into which i was born on 1996. the flamboyance, decadence and crime interwoven into the lives of those who cannot exist as their full subject under their contextual citizenship rings true and tangible, held together by a beautiful sets awash with purposeful detail
