“We Are Pat” (2025): Reclaiming a Controversial 90s Icon
Can a piece of bad representation truly be reclaimed? We Are Pat (2025) attempts to answer this question.
Playback (2020)
In Córdoba, far from the Argentine capital, the end of a military regime promises a spring that is all too brief. “La Delpi” is the only survivor of a group of friends who are transgender women and drag-queens, who began to die of aids in the late 80s. In a Catholic and conservative city, the Grupo Kalas made their weapons and trenches out of improvised dresses and lip-syncing. Today the images of unique and unknown footage are not only a farewell letter, but a manifesto to friendship.
