跨性別仍是長期被忽視和歧視的一群。跨女從事性工作,又是一個怎樣的生存狀態?本紀錄片聚焦四位美國非裔跨性別性工作者的故事,近乎赤裸的剖白,揭露非裔和酷兒的生存血淚史,同時反映殘酷的社會現實。導演 D. Smith 曾是兩度提名格林美獎的音樂製作人,2014年公開跨性別身分後,音樂事業也隨之走下坡。《KOKOMO:未至之城 Kokomo City》是他的首部長片,而主角之一 Koko Da Doll 於上映同年4月在亞特蘭大被槍殺。


In the wildly entertaining and refreshingly unfiltered documentary Kokomo City, filmmaker D. Smith passes the mic to four Black transgender sex workers in Atlanta and New York City – Daniella Carter, Koko Da Doll, Liyah Mitchell, and Dominique Silver – who unapologetically break down the walls of their profession. Holding nothing back, the film vibrates with energy, sex, challenge, and hard-earned wisdom.

D. Smith

D. SMITH (director, editor, cinematographer, producer) is a two-time Grammy nominated producer, singer, and songwriter and she directed her film debut of the documentary “Kokomo City.” 


In 2014, Smith decided to walk in her truth and transition into the woman she always knew she was. She was unaware that living in her truth meant that she would have to sacrifice the thing she loved the most, which was making music for a living. People stopped calling. And eventually after running out of money and options, she knew she had to move on from the life she once knew.
