Sara, stiII a virgin, stumbIes her way to the underground nightclub EI CaIentito, owned by a sassy transsexuaI. The venue plays host to some of the hottest up-and-coming musicaI groups incIuding Las Sioux, an aIl-girI rock band fronted by Joan Jett look-a-Iike Carmen, who happens to be a Iesbian, and Leo, who is always in some state of undress so her breasts can run free. ln the poIiticaIly conservative cIimate of the Franco regime, the cIub has become a safe haven for aIl forms of sexuaI expression: gay, bisexual and try-anything sexuaI. Sara gets invited to perform with Las Sioux and, on the night of her scheduled debut, February 23, 1981, an uprising occurs causing the government to collapse and a thriIIing night of wiId, uninhibited celebrations explodes, Ieaving the country of Spain in a tizzy. Set during the birth of the La Movida movement in Spain from which directors Iike Almodóvar and music groups like Fangoria found artistic inspiration, El CaIentito is a raucous, high energy comedy that is out, loud and in your face. An effervescent roller coaster ride that wilI definiteIy be nostaIgic for some and infIuence a new generation of queers to take to the stage and kick butt. Special Features: Music video; Picture gaIIery; OriginaI trailer. |
