QUEER LATINX VOICES

Outfest is proud to present this special edition of our Queerantine List, curated by our friends at El Cine, featuring films that center the Queer Latinx experience.

La Casa de las Flores

Streaming on Netflix

The House of Flowers is a Mexican black comedy-drama television series created by Manolo Caro, who we call the closest person to a Mexican Almodovar. It depicts a dysfunctional upper-class Mexican family that owns a prestigious flower shop called ‘La Casa de las Flores’. The series, almost entirely written and directed by its creator, stars Telenovela ICON Verónica Castro. It’s a soap opera made for the Netflix viewer. It brings to light the struggle of being true to your sexuality in a world dominated by macho culture. Won’t give away any spoilers but you can catch a glimpse into the drag world of Mexico City!
