Overview

The film depicts a tour of the Los Angeles, California underground transgender, lesbian, and gay nightclub scene, as hosted by the Goddess Bunny, a disabled tap dancing artist. The film also explores the life of Baima, mainly focusing on her transition into a woman, as well as her battle with polio as a child.

Controversy

Crisp became a subject of controversy when a scene of the movie, which featured her tap dancing, was first released in 2005 in the form of an online video on eBaum's world[5] and then reuploaded on YouTube.[6] The video with the Spanish title "Obedece a la morsa"[5] or in English "Obey the Walrus" subsequently went viral.[5][7]
