Lima is Burning (Spanish: Arde Lima) is a 2023 Peruvian documentary film written, co-produced and directed by Alberto Castro. It follows the personal and professional lives of a group of Peruvian drag queens in a still very conservative country. It is the third film of Castro's documentary trilogy about LGBTIQ+ in Peru following Drag Invasion (2020) and Salir del clóset (2022).
Synopsis
Fifteen drag artists face a still very conservative Peruvian society, in heels, with bright dresses and well-placed wigs. These multicolored, radiant and multi-talented characters defend the freedom to be oneself, express oneself and dress freely, while along the way they reveal family fissures, unconditional friendships and dreams in the making.
