The historic Silver Platter Bar in Los Angeles comes to life, guiding us through its past and present as a safe haven for the Latino transgendered community. A group of young artists create a weekly performance art/dance party (organized by director Wu Tsang and DJs NGUZUNGUZU CODIGOGAND Total Freedom) that explodes into creativity and conflict. What does "safe space" mean, and who needs it? The search for answers creates coalitions across generations.
