ReelQ: Tchindas

Join us for a screening of Tchindas, hosted by ReelQ. This film is presented in Cape Verdean Creole with English subtitles. (Runtime: 94 minutes) Tchinda is one of most beloved women in Cape Verde, especially after she came out as a transgender person in the local newspaper in 1998. Since then, her name has become the term used by locals to name queer Cape Verdeans.
