Description

A stunning depiction of four Black transgender sex workers from New York and Georgia exploring the dichotomy between the Black community and themselves. Delving into long avoided issues, these transgender women candidly discuss taboos, realities of their work, and society’s portrayal of their livelihood and identity. Grammy-winning producer and first-time director D. Smith has crafted a vibrant and humanizing piece of filmmaking utilizing luminous black and white photography. KOKOMO CITY is a raw, edgy and rare look that exquisitely captures the private lives of Black transgender women on their own terms.
