What is Tangerine about?

It's Christmas Eve in Tinseltown and Sin-Dee is back on the block. Upon hearing that her pimp boyfriend hasn't been faithful during the 28 days she was locked up, the working girl and her best friend, Alexandra, embark on a mission to get to the bottom of the scandalous rumor. Their rip-roaring odyssey leads them through various subcultures of Los Angeles, including an Armenian family dealing with their own repercussions of infidelity.

It follows a transgender sex worker as she discovers that her boyfriend, who is also her pimp, has been cheating on her. The film stars Kitana Kiki Rodriguez, Mya Taylor, and James Ransone.
